Title: A very sad day in Clusterville
Post by DonnaHar on Feb 21st, 2006, 12:05pm
With a very heavy heart, I must share the following with you all.  I just logged into my hotmail account and found the following:

To all of my father's e-mail friends...

It is with great sadness to inform you of the passing of my father, Bob Kipple. I know many of you were very close to him and in his heart. He passed peacefully in his sleep on Sunday 2/20/06. Should you wish to contact the family, you can respond to this e-mail address or to pica@bellsouth.net or call my home phone at xxxxxxxxxxxx.  In lieu of flowers, donations to the research for Clusterheadaches is what we would perfer. (I am sure he would rather have it that way too!)
With much love, Janet Cairo, Bob Kipple's daughter

Rest in Peace my dear friend.

I spent a lot of time chatting with him on our "porch" at NashCon.  I'll never forget all his endless stories and his laughter and joy he had over all the memories he caried with him.  I, personally, took his spirit in stride when learning about the initial days of OUCH.  I enjoyed every minute I spent talking with him and Judy.

He'd tell a rock about cluster headaches - that's how much of an advocate he was for all of us.  Over the past couple of years, I've forwarded his scale on to a few professionals here and there so that they know what we mean when we say "Kip...so and so" when talking about our pain.

He was such a great guy - loved him like a grandfather even though we haven't been in touch in some time now.  And for that, I'm sorry... :(

I truly hope he has found peace now.  No more pain.  No more beast.

Godspeed Kip...love you,

Lizzie2/Carrie   :'(   :-*

As I added to Helpful Hints post.


Quote:
In Honor of Robert(Bob) Kipple who passed on the day this was posted. God Bless his work and Thank You Kip for being. May all who enter this site know the name Robert Kipple and find comfort with knowing he found for us a common ground. He passed peacefully in his sleep on 2/20/06.


The groundwork he laid before us,
the rest we must carry on.
Heaven has called up,
today a beloved son.
Pain in his life he knew,
but compassion he delivered.
For those of us that knew him,
knew he would have had it no other way.
Pain for most of us is a reality of life,
To be pain free a dream, but a dream we must realize.
Those he has helped and those will help still,
Remember Robert Kipple for all of us, forever will.

Mike 2/21/06  
In Memory of Robert (Bob) Kipple Creator of the KIP Scale. We love you KIP!

I am so terribly loss for your losses.  You've seen so much in the last few years with all the hurricanes, and to lost him now is a sad and tragic time for your entire family.

Wow...  shaking my head in awe just skimming down the list of links there and noting that the majority are from people mentioning the kip scale on other sites!!  That's truly amazing and awesome!!  :)

I've shared it with all the docs at Jefferson on several occasions and emailed a few of them again today with the link of it.  I know they all liked it a lot - had been hoping if they see enough of it, they would adopt it.

My pain of loss is nothing compared to the nightly struggles you all face.. for me the pain will lessen with time.  :'(

Kip was relatively clusterheadache free for the last 3 years, it was replaced with another demon known as neuropethy (sp?... still work for a newpaper...cnt spell wrth a x#%&!!!) the miss firing of the nerves located in the feet. Kind of like someone sticking a big needle into your big toe with no warning.. not much fun.

He is now pain free... and looked very peaceful when I found him.

Met Judy and Bob in  Nashville.   Took Judy to the doctor so he could stay and talk - and she is such a sweet sweet lady.  I will never forget it.  

How is she?????????   Anyone know?

RIP Kip!!   :'( :'(

In memory of a great man!

I feel so privileged that I was able to spend time with him in Nashville.

He will never be forgotten....he left such a legacy.

Much love to Judy and Janet.....may you find peace in the great memories.

Unfortunately Mom (Judy) is in the hospital. She has emphezima(sp) and currently battling a viral infection. I am not sure how long she will be there... will keep you posted.

I fear my biggest challange will be when she returns home to a very empty house. As some of you know, they loved each other very deeply. I nick named them the Bickerson's because they always picked on each other! They were married for almost 47 years.

Every day life presents me with many challanges that I can choose to face with a positive attitude... though some days I would rather drink a 6 pack and call it a day... :( :( :(

Thank you all for all your kind words and stories... I cry, laugh and smile when I read them. It has been a great comfort in my time of need.

I plan to stick around and carry on my father's legacy (dang is that  corny or what??) of dry humor and words of wisdom... I learned from the best!

Janet,

Sorry to hear that Judy is in the hospital!  Please pass on get well wishes from us - I know this can't be easy for her at all being in the hospital and going through this loss at the same time...  And not easy on YOU either - my goodness!!  I hope you're able to take some time for yourself and have someone who can take care of YOU too!!!

Glad you're going to stick around to live your dad's legacy.  ;)  Let us know if we can do anything to help!

Hugz,

Janet,

Please do stick around...you are family, after all :)

Your Dad was very special to me.  It has taken all day to figure out what to say and I still probably won't get it right.  During a very difficult time in my life, when I was leaving my ex your Dad used to send me messages of encouragement to help me keep going on with life.  Sometimes just a sentence or two, but always uplifting and positive and those words meant more to me than anyone could possibly know.

Your Dad had a good heart and he shared it with so many people here.  I can remember the day in Nashville when I finally got to hug the neck of the man who's messages kept me going during those dark times.  He will ALWAYS have a special place in my heart.

I wish I could be there to give you a hug right about now.  Please let Judy know that we are praying for your family and for her speedy recovery.  I know this is going to hit her hard.  Anyone who ever saw them together knew they were just as much in love with each other now as they were when they met :)  Most of us could only dream of such happiness.  

If there is anything we can do for your family, please just say the word.  Your Dad has done so much for us...it is the least we can do in return.

Love and Prayers to you and your family.

DD

Very sorry to hear this news. Its been a very bad few months. (Butch,Cazman,Kip)

Never met him but Bob kindly gave me permission to use the Kip Scale for scoring during the Harvard trials so his written contribution will someday be forever emblazened onto important work for clusterers and stored in the halls of the Ivy League. Just a small bit of legacy in comparison to what he has obviously emblazened upon the hearts of the people here and at home.

Judy and Janet, I just received an email about the news of Kip's passing....I am heartbroken.  I could go on for hours about the times I have had with Kip and Judy that I will cherish forever!  Atlanta and Florida being my favorite and most memorable times....I will never forget the first time I met Kip and Judy...I was walking down the hall at the Atlanta convention, Kip opened their room door and invited me in...I stayed in the room with him and Judy for about two hours ...it was like we had been friends for our entire lives....Then, the Florida trip, with our going out to eat seafood....then, the nite Kip fell asleep and Judy called me and Bill L to come and bring her to our room...Kip woke up and Judy was gone, and he came running to our room frantic....Judy said "where did you think I went, Krispy Creme?"...I  could not stop  laughing at those two...God, the memories are so precious....May God bless you all during this time.  Janet, please give Judy a bug hug from me...Kip will be truly missed in Clusterville!  We love you brother and will see you one day for that great reunion!  .love , nancyc

Just a note to keep you posted on Judy's condition. At the present her outlook is quite bleak. The doctors have done all that they can and it is now just a matter of time before she passes. They are giving her morphine whenever requested... she never awoke after the proceedure today. I pray that my father and the hand of God will take her soon so that she may be PF with no more trouble breathing.  :'( :'( :'( :'(

Nani is right, having met Kip and Judy at a few conventions and watching how they interacted makes me think that she wont let him get away, she needs to be giving him an ear full.

Your Dad saved me hundreds of ours of pain, Janet. He was my 02 mentor and now I give advice on 02 to those that dont know.

Janet, I, too, am late in reading this, and I, too, send you my deepest sympathies. I was in Nashville with them. Bob was always surrounded by friends, and Judy was always right there with him.
I remember worrying about the 2 of them as they headed home. Mostly, my concern was for Judy, who was so frail. I admit, I had that same thought when I read this sad thread.............now, I know.they were meant to be together always.

What a huge loss for you, Janet....and what a loved couple.

Praying for a miracle for Judy-

Dear Janet,

I was lucky enough to meet Kip & Judy in Nashville during the convention.  If there were ever two peas in a pod... well, they were it.  

Kip has brought a great deal of understanding with his breakdown of the pain through the "KIP" scale, to those of us who do not suffer clusterheadaches, but love those who do.  

I'm very sorry for your loss, and now with Judy in this condition, my heart goes out to you.   Whatever happens, know this:  this cluster family is here to comfort you and help you through this difficult time.

My deepest and most heartfelt sympathy,
Patty

Rest in Peace Pain Free forever KIP.

Thank you all for your wonderful words! This evening I went to be with my mom expecting the worst... she awoke with a start!  :o :o :o It was almost as if my dad had sholved her out of heaven and back down to earth. (Sounds kind of weird.. but really, that is exactly what it was like!!) I asked her if she saw my dad and she said yes... then I asked her if he told her she had to get better and she looked at me kind of funny and said yes. She has always had a strong will to live... so I will keep you all posted. Though my pain has not been a cluster pain... you have all given me that extra boost to keep moving forward... thank you and bless you all!!! XXOO Janet

I've been out of touch since Sunday, but did get a phone call on Tuesday about Kip and have been a little bit upset about his passing since then.

As most of you know, I've known Kip and Judy longer than most anyone here and have a strong bond with them. The one thing I'm grateful for is that I talked to them a few weeks ago and got to tell them both that I loved them. I didn't realize it would be the last time I would tell Kip that (and possibly Judy also), but I'd glad I got the chance to do it.

For those of you who never got a chance to meet Kip, you missed meeting a really super man. I went back to the archives and found an old post from April of 99. Just thought I'd share it with you to show the humor this guy had even in the midst of CH. This is how he'd want to be remembered - with a smile (or a belly laugh).

Posted by Bob Kipple - April 1999
My primary way of dealing with a full blown 8 to 10 CH is walking (pacing?). When we moved to this very rural location in '80, the walks around the dirt roads seemed a little more soothing than pacing around the pool at our former house. The only problem in this rural paradise was dogs. After standing off 3 pit bulls, 2 dobermans and a variety of yappies, I started carrying a gun although the intense light of my dive light would usually stop then. The closest I came to using it was on a very dark night I was rounding the corner on the road to home when something "bumped" me. I turned on my flashlight and there was a HUGE Rotweiler pacing with me. Out comes the gun!!! But Mr. R wants to be my friend, ie, takes my hand gently in his mouth (dog spit, ugh). OK sez I, dog wants to be my pal (stupid dog really wanted to be my lover). We go around the corner and Mr. R runs in front of me, trips me and now I'm on hands and knees. Next thing I know, there's a paw on both shoulder and a rhythmic bumping on my but
t. AAARRGHHH. Grabbed Mr. R by neck while getting gun and getting ready to defend my honor. Mr R just kinda wimpered, like 'Did I do someting wrong?". OK sez I, you're spared. So I finally get home, the beast has been walked off, and I tell my wife of my ordeal... First, she offers to call the rape crisis line and then worries about what to name the puppies!!! I really love this lady, she can sense when I can appreciate this humor.
Painfree and remission for all. Wacth out for large dogs, we suffer unough.

RIP my friend.

Her lung has collapsed on the right side and there is nothing that can be done to correct it... anyhting done now would really only prolong the pain...and suffering for her and us as well.

Janet, what can we say?  Nothing is going to ease your pain right now, only time can do that.  But we're all here for you and will stand quietly with you.

I'm very proud of you and your family to see that you are planning a party for them.  Good for you, Janet!  Celebrate their life and celebrate that they ARE together again.  I bet you're right - I bet your Mom IS giving your Dad an earful for leaving her for these few days.  I bet your Dad is rolling his eyes and saying "yes, dear" a lot now.

When my grandfather passed away, I was completely shattered - he was more a dad to me than anyone.  He was a wonderful man and gave so much to everyone who came in contact with him, loved by many - just like your dad.  So please do carry on with your plans for the party.  I wore white (instead of black)  to Gramps' funeral and we had a jazz band there instead of a choir.  They played "When the Saints Go Marchin' In" and they really rocked the church.  He was in a jazz band and these were his buds, playing at his final concert.  It was an amazing tribute to his life and I'm sure he would have loved it.  Do that, Janet - celebrate your parents and make it a happy send off for them.  

We've all got a huge hole in our hearts today - two, in fact.  We're all blessed to have been able to call your parents part of this family.

hugs and love,

Words just seem trivial at moments like this.  I was blessed to have met both your mother and father in Nashville.  We all have the wonderful memories of our times with them both.  Some knew your parents better than others, however they touched the lives of everyone they knew in some special way.  They are both whole again, and together, and well once more.

I lost my Mother this fall, and my father almost 26 years ago.  Parents are irreplacable.

Bob and Judy bring new light to the meaning of the words. Truly, they were meant to be together til the end. Though my heart is heavy at this time, I beam with the joy and inspiration I have acquired from two very fine human beings.

Meeting them in Nashville was sheer pleasure. The love they emitted as a couple warmed my heart.


Janet, you always have a home here with us. May God keep you close during such a time of grief, and may WE, your extended family, be there for you in any way we can.


My deepest and sincere sympathies to you and the entire family,


EDNA

Janet...I'm so glad that you found us, that we were here for each other and that you are now a part of this family.  Kip and Judy would be pleased that you are here with us..

Where is your headquarters going to be for their life celebration?  Up north or here in Florida?

Hugs.......and take care of YOU, please.

Donna
