RIP Robert Law


We are very sorry to hear the news of the death of Bob Law.  

23948501 Sgt Robert (Bob) Law died on Thursday 14th November 2024.

 

Bob served with 23 PFA from 1965 to 1974, however he spent a good number of years outside of the PFA. 1967 he was a medic with 1 Para in Aden, with 3 Para in NI and Cyprus 1970 -1974, before going back to 23 PFA. He then took part in the Gulf War posted to the Grenadier Guards and served in Saudi Arabia, Iraq, and Kuwait.

 

Bob was a member of the PRA, but not connected to any branch, Bob and his wife Rose were inseparable in life and both strong members of 23/144 PFA OCA. They attended many events including trips to Arnhem and Normandy as well as the battalion reunions and Regimental events. 

The funeral will take place at 13:30hrs on Friday 13 December 2024.

 

The quiet rage simmers slowly

Heart and mind turning over

While death smiles at us all

Fighting every ounce of fate

Crumbling into a dark oblivion

But not before one final reach

To prove worthy of the infinite

Heaven smiles on your head

The dawn opens a path forward

The Angels rejoice in your effort

Forever homeward bound
