We need a prayer chain for Bob Gold . He is in the hospital in Canton Oh. not sure the name right now I will find out. His condition right now is not good but hopefully it will improve. Bob has always been a friend of the 1st and 50th association and was in D company heavy weapons.

Just talked to Bob . Didn't sound real good a little hard for him to talk but he did pretty good. He has Respiratory problems COPD I'm thinking. They are giving him Breathing treatments therapy I'm not sure how much that can helps to heal the lungs but depends on the amount of damage I guess.
He did talk fairly good and said the staff there was five stars, so he seems to be getting good care. He is at Mercy Medical Center 1320 Mercy Drive Northwest Canton, Ohio 44708.

Mick, I spoke to Bob last week, he called me to say goodbye this floored me of coarse. I had no words at first.He said Sherry would keep me posted. I praying for him.May all the 1/50th. Brothers pray for Bob. God Bless

Word from Bob's wife Sherry is grim. My thoughts go out to her and Bob's family. Although I have not had a chance to speak with Bob in several years, I know he feels like many of us...that every day since surviving Vietnam was a gift. I thought I would post a link to this reunion photo. Bob receiving his induction into the "Order of Saint Maurice" at our 2017 Reunion. It was the last time I saw him. He will be missed.

I am just realizing many may not know that Bob passed on Monday afternoon. I have posted an Obituary on our "Taps" page. Arrangements are being discussed for a possible gathering of friends later this year. There are currently no memorial services set. https://www.ichiban1.org/pdf/Obituary/GoldObit.pdf
