Chris Lane called me Sunday afternoon to inform me of Bob Ladwig’s death. Bob had experienced chest pain and a cardiac catheterization showed blockage. He had a one vessel bypass 6-4-10 and was recuperating nicely planning to go home today. Yesterday he was up walking with the help of physical therapy and suddenly dropped to the floor and was unable to be resuscitated. Chris relates Bob had one sister and, as you all know, was like family to the Lanes. Chris says he was the grandfather he never had. Our sympathies go out to Chris, Mark and Lorenda. No further details are currently available but I will post the arrangements as soon as I know something.
