Robert’s Story

Site created on December 2, 2020

Bob was taken to his doctor for a physical.  He is weighing 115 lbs (½ of his original weight. He has a condition called cachexia (you can look it up on google). It is called the "wasting disease " usually due to a critical underlying condition such as cancer, COPD, etc. There is no cure for this.   Bob will be transferred to an assisted living unit where he will receive hospice care on-site. There he will be taken care of, followed by medical experts, and made to feel as comfortable as possible le. Right now he is not in any pain but he has no appetite and has stopped eating for the time being.  We will communicate updates to his website to keep you all informed of his condition on a daily basis.  Please keep him in your prayers as he undertakes this journey.

Journal entry by Josephine Silvey

It is with a sad heart that we announce Bob's passing. He died peacefully this morning. We suspected that his time was near these last couple of days as he became really weak and no longer took phone calls or responded to texts. 

Diane will make plans for a memorial service in Scranton at some point in time in the future due to Covid-19. She will call the family to announce the plans in person when she has had the time to make the funeral arrangements in Atlanta. Then she will have to make arrangements for Scranton. 

Her address is: 810 Camden Park Court N.E. Atlanta, GA 30342. Diane's phone: 404-698-0047 (is her cell.)
Brian Dennis (husband), Greyson Dennis, and Amelia Dennis (children).
