Then scroll down to Bob Stocksdale, this is better than the first one I posted because you can click on different chapters, without having to dig through the whole thing.

I hope this works.

One can always Google Bob Stocksdale and look at everything that shows up. The Wiki article said he died at age 89 and was turning until the end. Gives me hope, I'm only 69.
