I figure the forum should know. It had been a while since he had posted, his name hadn't shown up on the board when I was here, and he hadn't answered some emails, so yesterday I called the school where he teaches and they told me he had died. I didn't get the date straight in my head but it had to be the 30th although somebody mentioned the 7th. In any case it was on a Saturday morning during a class he was teaching. He said he wasn't feeling well and left the classroom. They found him on the floor either in the corridor or in the men's room -- I talked to two different people -- and he was DOA at the hospital, of an apparent heart attack. He was a smoker. I was told they've already had the memorial service so I think it couldn't have been the 7th that he died. Maybe that was the day of the service.
Oh my!!! That's terrible. You know, I really liked Robin. He will be missed. And I will certainly pray for his family.
I believe this is Robin's grandson, Zach, who is just darling. I'm sure his family is grieving their loss. I also wanted to say thanks to all the people that wrote on his behalf. They are kind words from one and all.
