    Lost a True Blue Dawg and Friend Today

    The Tech Family lost a true blue Dawg and friend today as Bob Renicker (ETXDAWG) passed away suddenly in his sleep last night. I was so privileged to call him a close friend!
    Bob and I even drove to the game this past Saturday together from Tyler picking up one of my sons and my dad along the way in Shreveport. Bob loved Louisiana Tech dearly and of course loved his dear family of three boys, all grown, and wife Barbara.
    While driving to the game Saturday it came up that he had asked Christ into his heart at the age of twelve years of age. I knew he had but not at what age. How blessed for all to know that he is with the Lord at this moment.
    Please say prayers for the family as the suddenness of this was obviously unexpected and such a shock. He will be missed by all but the great memories will last forever.

    Thanks for letting us know Ray. I remember him from waaaaay back. He has made that drive from Tyler to Ruston many, many, times. I know y'all were good friends. Also, thanks for the testimony.

    We are saddened to hear this. We sat beside them at football games. He was a delight, and yes, a true Bulldawg! She is a sweet, gracious lady. Please e-mail his address so we can send Barbara a card. Our e-mail is gsusanbaby@aol.com Thank you.

    Really sorry to hear about this Ray. I'm sorry for your loss, and LA Tech's loss. Do you know how old he was? And what he died from?

    Thanks guys! I'm great as I know where he is at this moment. It's his wife and family that will need the extra prayers. His wife has been battling cancer and Bob of course was her loving caregiver. They are both TECH grads. Bob was 71 and they are assuming a heart attack or sleep apnea at this point (he always faithfully used his CPAP machine and mask). He was able to see the Dawgs win Saturday, hold their new twin grandchildren Sunday (just a few months old) and tell his wife he loved her after giving her a kiss goodnight. He went peacefully in his sleep. God is good!!

    Sad news. Prayers to the family. Hate it was so sudden, but between that and prolonged suffering, I'd think going in one's sleep is the way to go. Still, very sad to hear this.

    It saddens me whenever we lose good people in this world, but it saddens especially when it is one of the Tech Family.
