Saturday December 20th, 2026: Bob Garvey Update

A few of you asked about Bob in your comments on my reflection today. Mark Gates had sent me an update yesterday but I figured at first I would wait for the next update. But since I had so many people ask, here is the news from Bob’s daughter, Kristy:

“Great news on Bob Garvey. From Kristy: Dad’s scan this morning showed everything is stable! He rested and even ate dinner today (Thursday evening)! His speech is almost perfect and the doctor spoke to me about him going to Frazier rehab, maybe even as early as this weekend! They are very pleased with his speech and cognitive abilities. He’s a walking miracle!”

Merry Christmas everyone. Looking forward to another great ACM year in 2026

About the Author

Hello! My name is John Ciribassi. I live in Carol Stream, IL in the USA. My wife Elise and I are parishioners at Corpus Christi Catholic Church. We have two adult daughters. One lives in Senegal, West Africa with her husband and her 3 sons. The other teaches Anthropology at the University of Oslo, Norway. We also have a home in Mainesburg, Pa in the North Central part of Pennsylvania. My wife and I are both retired veterinarians, and my specialty is in animal behavior. I attended college and veterinary school in Illinois, where I met my wife who is from the Chicago area, and the rest is history! My hobbies include Racquetball, Pickleball, Off Road Motorcycle Riding, Hiking and Camping. I continue to enjoy the opportunity to offer what little insight I have on the scriptures. But I have always felt that the scriptures can speak for themselves. My job is just to shine a little light on them for people who maybe don't have the time to look into the readings deeply. I hope you enjoy and find value in my writings. I continue to be grateful for this opportunity.
