Obituary of Robert Black

Robert "Bob" David Black of Salinas, surrounded by his loving family and friends, passed peacefully from this world on Friday, July 29, 2011 at the age of 28. Bob was an avid sports fan and was nearing completion of a Bachelor’s degree in business at Cal State Monterey Bay. Bob was a courageous young man, who was an inspiration to many people. As the saying goes, ”He held his mud and died like a man.” Weep Not For Me By Joni Black "Weep not for me that I am gone, no longer in your world, For my Earth Journey now is done, Life’s Banner has been furled. My spirit now a new flag flies, on wind forever free. In a new world my journey lies— you need not weep for me. I must confess my tears for you, for those I leave behind. You cannot know the joy I do, the peace that’s in my mind. So be content to travel on and I shall do the same, For when your Journey, too, is done, our paths will cross again." A Memorial service will be held on Thursday, August 4th at 10am at the Healy Mortuary Chapel 405 N. Sanborn Road, Salinas CA 93905.
