Very sad indeed. My heart goes out to his family and possibly no one more than his mother. She has had to bury all (but one) of her kids (Andy, Maurice, & now Robin). Just unbelievably bad luck. Barry is all that remains of the legendary trio.
Too obsessed to turn back

It's not how hard you hit, but how hard you can be hit and still move forward.
Incredible that the oldest Gibb brother of the four, is the only one remaining. I just attended a funeral for a friend who lost his battle with cancer. It's really sad that we haven't found a cure for it yet.Originally Posted by MIB41

I may be called a conspiracy theorist, but I truly believe the medical industry doesn't WANT to find cures for diseases like cancer. Doesn't anybody find it odd that cures and vaccines were discovered for so many other ailments 50+ years ago with less money and less technology than we have now?
Bottom line, there's too much profit in keeping people sick. You can only cure a disease once, but you can TREAT it for years. It's a FACT that drug companies withhold producing certain medicines people desperately need in order to drive up the price. It's sickening.

I missed the news yesterday - RIP. It's too bad Robin and Donna Summer aren't getting the same type of wall-to-wall coverage that Whitney Houston got. IMO those two contributed more to music and affected generations more than she did. Saturday Night Fever might be the greatest movie soundtrack of all time.
The Bee Gee's "He's A Liar" is playing on my streaming radio station as I type this. Freaky.

I like the "Bee Gees" and play their music once in a while. My 11 year never pays that much attention to the news or anything, but when they announced Robin Gibb had died he asked "Dad, why are so many famous people dying lately"?

RIP Robin.

Rampart, this is Squad 51. How do you read?
It's weird thinking Barry is the only one left - and he's the oldest

And that includes Andy Gibb who was the youngest of the 4 brothers, but died first.
