Thinking of Bob Jenkins...

So my thoughts upon Zanardi ant the world were penned yesterday afternoon as I struggle to complete another riveting sports story for Sportyblog-dot-com just prior to listening to Trackside, where I learned  the very unfortunate news that longtime stellar TV broadcaster Bob Jenkins wife Pam had died from her fight against cancer.

As we  all know, this past September  Messer Jenkins bid farewell to us from TV-land in order to focus solely upon caring for his wife of an unheard of 44-years these days... And I cannot even think of the words to type away here to define the loss of a single person’s life, yet then Curt Cavin revealed today that along with his wife, Bob has also just lost his brother along with a very longtime friend of a Beatles tribute band. As it seems irrelevant to write that life’s cruel! As I’ve never met Bob, but have grown to appreciate him more ‘N more over the years of his distinguished broadcasting career - especially enjoying his final three years of calling Indy Cars for NBCSN,  which appropriately were touched upon at Fontana...


Many Condolences, Bob!
