In January 1968 Marion karpoff and her brother Mark Poole finally succeeded in recruiting us for the RS1 course. It was held at Windermere United Methodist Church in East Cleveland. The man who seemed to be the custodian and helping in the kitchen turned out to be Dr. Robert Rafos, who people referred to as Brother Lawrence. That began a 50 year friendship, that included establishing The Cleveland Religious House in 1969, Lagos in 1981, then continued to the present time. Judith and I, Meg , Kit and Brooke send our sympathy to Sandy, Kim, Robin and Sharon and the extended family. I hope the memories of a truly Spirit Giant will sustain your family in the years to come. Grace, peace, and love, the Tippett family Sent from my Verizon 4G LTE Droid On Mar 10, 2018 12:09 PM, Lynda C via Dialogue <dialogue@lists.wedgeblade.net> wrote:

One great man! What a great soul, indeed! He phoned us a couple of weeks ago thanking us for our letter and the “Journey Reflection” blog, that he said was a help to his sense being connected to our global Order community and mission on a daily basis. It was a profound conversation about the journey he and his family were on. He spoke proudly and gratefully for the presence and care for him and Sandra provided by their team of strong young women.
We send our care to Sandra, Sharon, Robin, Kim and families as they celebrate his life and mourn his absence. Bob's care and leadership in our community will long be remembered.
Grace and Peace,
