Robert Wayne Gama
Eulogy

Here we are once again. Our family chain has been broken.

Robert Wayne Gama was born on August 8, 1946, in Martinez, California. Robert passed away on March 8, 2008 at the San Jose Valley Medical Hospital...

Dear Bob,
Where can I begin to thank you for the wonderful memories. You were my first love, and husband. My best friend and will always be. You will forever be in my heart. God bless and keep you.

Love,
Donna

Bob, though I knew you for as long as I've known Renee, it was only in the last couple of years that I truly started to understand you, and hear you. At the end, you ceased to simply be my best friend's father. You became my friend too. Your bravery is unmatched by anyone I ever knew. You have faced things I'll never face. You have seen things I'll never see. And you have lost in ways I hope to never lose. But through it all you have held a smile every time I saw you... no matter what...

We didn't know you real well, Bob, but heard much about you and your family through our dear friends, Earl and Linda. We know you are in a much better place and we praise the Lord you will suffer no more. You are now dancing around with the Angels. We know we will meet you again in God's heavenly home.
Love to you -

I never meet Bob but I am sorry to hear of his passing... I will keep you in my prayers...

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. May God grant you his peace.
