    Wa wa what?!
    OMG!

    Man, I’m sorry to hear that. I wish him the best for his recovery.
    Thank you, for the update and please continue to do so as you get new information.

    It’s sad but I do kinda feel like the people in this forum are my friends and co workers. being a one man operation you kinda lose touch not being around co workers every day. I have meet several and speek with them on a weekly basis. I surely like @Farmerbob1 and his attitude, and would count him among the people I would like to meet.

    As his mother that statement is FALSE. My son was hospitalized 6 days before death. Don't cause me more pain and grief with rumor and false statements.

    Please don't post false information about my son, Matthew, aka FarmerBob1. He was hospitalized 6 days. Don't cause this mother more pain and grief with rumors.

    My goodness.
    Farmer Bob died?
    If so, I'm very, very sorry.
    My sincere condolences to you and your family.
    Really?
