Robert Roon
Bob has been extremely blessed with a wonderful family. He and his beautiful wife Stephanie have been married for 12 years, and he has four terrific children (Chris, Brittany, Michael, and Makenna)…ranging in age from 33 down to 4 years old. There are also 5 amazing grandchildren thrown into the mix (Emily, Logan, Christopher, Ryleigh, and Jacob).
Bob’s cancer journey began in November of 2018, when he was diagnosed with Metastatic (Stage IV) Prostate Cancer. The cancer was found to be located in not only the prostate, but also in multiple locations throughout his body, including the spine. Bob has gone through 6 rounds of chemotherapy, and is currently in the midst of hormone therapy to keep the cancer at bay. Throughout it all, Bob’s strong faith in God, and the love and support of family and friends, has allowed him to maintain an extremely positive attitude. Bob refuses to allow his cancer to dictate how he lives his life. Per the medical community, Bob’s cancer is considered to be incurable….but with God at the center of your life, anything is possible!! The money received from BTB will definitely come in handy, and will be used to assist with medical bills, and if possible, will help Bob to spend some time visiting his older children that live out of state. |
