    Just a note to let you know that brother Bob passed away Sat evening at 8:00 P.M. He was put in the hospital thur because he was having a hard time breathing and they were worried about his heart. Fri. he was better but Sat took a turn for the worse. Al and I saw him at 4:30 and he was really breathing hard but was aware of everything , we left at 4:30 and shortly after that he was not aware of anything. He went quick and would have wanted it that way.
    Will send more later. Sam(uel Alexander Smith) Robert's brother.
