From Ron Kelley, assistant pastor, Cambridge/Columbus, OH:

After a long and courageous battle with esophageal and lung cancer, Bob Galbreath of the Cambridge, Ohio, congregation died yesterday afternoon, April 26.  He slipped into a coma during the night and died shortly after noon.  Randy Stiver (pastor) and I were with him at the time of death.  Bob’s desire was that he would be a good example for others and he certainly accomplished that in the last weeks of his life.  He maintained his positive outlook and sense of humor throughout his illness and constantly looked for God’s will to be done.

Thank you for your prayers and concern for Bob.  He was very much encouraged by the loving support of so many brethren.

From Randy Stiver, pastor, Columbus/Cambridge, OH:

Bob Galbreath, a member of the Cambridge congregation who is in his 70's, was recently diagnosed with esophageal cancer and would very much appreciate your prayers.  He has lost a great deal of weight over the past several months and will now begin chemotherapy and other cancer treatments.  Bob is very upbeat and in good spirits to help fight the disease, but very adamantly states his faith in God for His ultimate healing.  Thank you for remembering him in your prayers.
