⛔️⚠️ A message from Bob’s family ⚠️⛔️
UPDATE 11/19/2024
I post this update with a very heavy heart and my sincere apologies to those who have to find out through this message. Bob passed away in peace late Saturday night, November 16th, after suffering an intracranial hemorrhage.
We have done our best to contact as many of you as possible but the list of people who knew him is exhaustive and we wanted to update this to reflect our current situation. There will not be a funeral but we plan to update you here with any information on a memorial service. For now the family remains in a state of shock and are taking as long a period of grieving as necessary before making any arrangements or plans.
We thank you for all the love, support and prayers as we deal with this great loss. We so appreciate the many kind words and condolences but we have been overwhelmed with all the people reaching out to us. Please understand if we are unable to answer or respond to your calls or messages. We love you all and in time we will be able to gather together to remember such an amazing man and celebrate his life and legacy.
Below is a piece written by Bob’s daughter that expresses the grief we share with all of you.
XOXOXO
The Bare and Swindle Family
I had to wake up today in a world that continues to exist without my dad in it. While life on earth will go on, it feels a little less kind to me.
My dad was a good man. It seemed as if the very fibers of his heart were woven from compassion, his eyes were primed to see only the goodness in the things and the people around him. He was the helper, the fixer, the giver and never expected anything in return.
These sentiments are not just mine but echoed back by those who I have spoken with. “The patience of a saint” “A gentle soul” “He changed my life” “He saved my life” “The kindest man I have ever known”.
Dad talked about how excited he was to go to heaven often enough that my sorrow is not for him… but for myself, for my family and for the entire world. Him leaving us is an irreplaceable loss, but the love and memories he left behind will forever reverberate through those of us blessed with knowing him.

Update: https://gofund.me/1d651c74

Dear friends, extended family, associates and acquaintances,
For those of you who have not heard, Bob was admitted to the hospital on November 1st due to a heart attack. He had stents put in the following week and the procedure seemed to have gone well but unfortunately, he developed a blood clot and has suffered a stroke as a result.

Bob is currently being treated by an amazing medical staff and has family near him.

Regrettably there wasn’t any warning and no one in the family has access to many of his accounts, contacts, etc. So as they commute to the hospital, work with the medical team, give support and love to Bob, they are also trying to locate essential information to ensure that his family is taken care of in the immediate future.

As a small family unit, it has been extremely exhausting, and they are requesting your grace and patience as they focus on Bob’s health and figure things out. They asked me to post this message for anyone that hadn’t heard the news or were waiting on an update from him.

They have faith that everything is going to work out but there is no denying that the best outcome can only be attained with lots of support from friends and family. Once the crucial elements are established, they hope to post more updates for everyone, including ways you can help.

If you have vital information that you need to communicate to the family, you can send Bob a DM via Facebook and it will be checked as often as possible. Please note that any message will only go to the family, not Bob personally as he does not currently have the ability to read or respond. Again, please ONLY contact if it is essential and begin your message with the word “emergency” so someone can quickly scan and identify what needs attention.

As many of you know, Bob had a stroke on November 7th. He is still bei… Rhenn Bare needs your support for BOB (CARE) BARE FUND: Help Bob Recover from a Stroke
