Nurse Julie:
Sad news. Forum member Rob.b (Rob Birkett) had died, he was 61
Rob went to the doctors at the end of March with back ache. After some tests he was diagnosed with terminal Spinal cancer with secondary cancer of the lungs. He was given 3-6 months to live.
He married his partner, Sara, whilst in hospital a couple of months ago.
We got to know Rob as late last year he got Graham to do an overhaul on his CB500 K1 engine. He was the funniest and nicest man you could ever meet and he was a true biker, loved riding and was gradually riding around the coastline of the UK. He retired a few years ago, so had plenty of time for getting out and about.
I last spoke to Rob about 3 weeks ago and he was still optimistic of getting out on his bike again but, it never happened.
The funeral is on 22nd September in Chester and I will send a condolence card, from the Forum, to Sara.
