GOMES, Robert Forest "Bobby" (Age 41) Our beloved brother and friend of many entered into final rest on June 9th, 2010. His infectious smile and coy sense of humor will be deeply missed. Bobby was born May 15th, 1969 in Santa Rosa, California and has lived in Spokane since May, 1979. He graduated from North Central High School and has been a long time resident of Providence St. Joseph Care Center. Because of Bobby's special needs, he has made many friends in the local medical community. The family wishes to thank the staff and associates of Providence St. Joseph Care Center, Providence Sacred Heart Medical Center, (2South ICU, you Rock!), Shiners', Easter Seals, and all others who cared for and loved Bobby. Special thanks to his sister Debbie Niehenke for her years of love and support. Bobby is survived by three sisters, two brothers, and several nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by mother, Lola St Clair, and father Silvie Gomes. A memorial service will be held at Providence St. Joseph Care Center, 17 E. 8th Ave, Spokane WA., on Wednesday, June 16th , 2010 @ 3:00pm. All are invited to attend.

We have appreciated Bob's positive attitude through often difficult circumstances. Bob is an inspiration to us all. We rejoice that today He walks with Jesus. No assistance needed! We pray that all his family and friends will have this same future through trusting Jesus Christ.

Bob, You will be missed so much! I can't tell you how much of an inspiration you were to me and many others. Spending time with you was always the best part of my shift, your positive outlook will never be forgotten. I am sad that you are gone but know you are walking with the Lord now and are having no more pain or tears or sorrow. May the Lord comfort all who will miss him. Bob, I look forward to seeing you in eternity.
