With Deepest Sympathy........ 

   Bob Nuelle Has Passed Away.  

   One of our boating friends, Bob Nuelle, who most recently boated out of Yacht Club of St. Louis in the boat "Manhattan" passed away after a relatively short battle with cancer.

Funeral arrangements are pending but will probably be up here at Kutis and then Jefferson Barracks.

For those of you that maybe don't know, Bob had a rapidly spreading cancer that was discovered after a traffic accident. He also contracted a staph infection while in the hospital there in Del Ray Beach Florida where he was living. He coped with both surprisingly well, to the point of coming back to St. Louis to buy a car and then driving back to Del Ray Beach by himself. Unfortunately the staph infection kicked back in, he went back in to the hospital in Florida, went into Hospice care and died all within a few days. Faye and John Marnatti had just visited with him this morning.

Please excuse me if some of my facts are not 100% correct, just wanted those of you that didn't know already a little background. I will email you all as soon as I get the funeral arrangements.

Sorry to convey such sad news, our condolences to Bob's family and friends.

Kim's Son

   Randolph Michael Jones

Bill,

So more sad news to pass along, there has been way too much of it recently.
Kim's son, Randolph Michael Jones ,passed away last week. She has many friends on the river and I wanted to pass along the information of the services this weekend if anyone wants to attend.
Its a tragedy to lose a child I can't even imagine the loss she must be feeling. Thankfully, Kim has her family an friends to help her through this very difficult time.

Services will be held at Baue Funeral Home at Cave Springs and I-70 in St Charles. There will be a gathering of family an friends from Noon until 2:00 pm in the Chapel Room, Sunday October 7th, 2007. At 2:00 there will be a service followed by a procession to the Garden Of Love in the cemetery for a prayer.

My heart goes out to Kim and her family in this very difficult time.

Sincerely,

Tauni

Joshua Freeman  ----

Received the following email from Darryll Weil / Ron and Jane Freeman regarding a change in their son Josh's memorial service.

It will now be held on Saturday, from 10:00 a.m. -12:00 noon. It will still be held at Collier's on Lindbergh and we will then go to Lehman's Landing. 

Once again, thank you for your thoughts, prayers and support.
