In Memory

Bob Welch

Bob Welch

The following information comes from his brother, Bill:

Bob died suddenly and unexpectedly on April 19, 2011 at age 65, probably of a heart attack.  He graduated from Harvard, had been married for several years in the 1970s, and was a Navy veteran.  In his late twenties he developed a mild form of schizophrenia and was unable to work after that.  He was never hospitalized and lived alone with financial support from the family.  Although isolated by his disease, he did attend family gatherings and was able to live and function on his own most of the time.  He never fully admitted to having schizophrenia but was relatively content and believed that he was following God's will.

I did not know Bob and his twin brother Bill well, but I remember him as an intelligent guy and a fine athlete that all the girls adored.  Hope his passing was easy and he rests well.
