Robert Swetz (Vegas Bob's) Mother passed away 2:00 Central Time 8-27-2010

Robert Swetz is very sad because he didn't have the chance to say "Goodbye" to his Mother. I received a phone call yesterday from my sister saying our Mother's body was shutting down, and to wait a few days and see what happens.

Dorothy Swetz aka (Dorothy Gilbert) was a very loving mother and shall be very missed by all of us. She had been fighting "Cancer" for around 35 years and we all wondered how she continued to be so strong.

Dorothy (Dodie) came into our lives when our real Mother had left us when I was around eight years old, and even though Dodie was our step-mother I felt she was our real Mother because she was with us through all these years.

I will be heading to Minnesota to spend some time with our Father and dry his tears of joy & sadness, the joy that our father expresses is because he knows that Dodie has been relieved of the pain she has suffered in her years of sickness.

Here is a post I wrote yesterday and these types of posts are very difficult to write.

And for now all I can say is this post is for you Mom, "Goodbye" and Robert loves you!

Vegas Bob handles death very well but not when it's his mother!
