It is with deep sadness that we share the passing of our dear friend and longtime volunteer, Bob Gross. For many years, Bob was a dedicated FSR Patient Navigator, always offering his time to ensure those newly diagnosed with sarcoidosis or diagnosed with a new manifestation had someone to connect with and receive much needed support. As a retired vocational counselor Bob was skilled at helping patients find the resources they need to navigate their journey. His kindness, steady presence, and unwavering commitment touched countless lives. Bob was also a strong advocate; meeting with elected officials to increase funding for research and raise awareness about the unique needs of individuals living with rare diseases.

May we honor Bob by carrying forward the spirit of generosity, dedication, and care that he embodied so beautifully.

Please feel free to send your memories and reflections to info@stopsarcoidosis.org

Best,
FSR
