Today we held a Memorial Service for my husband of almost 50 years, Robert Miles. Rob died from Leukemia on 27/6 after 3.5 years battling this illness. Rob loved Vintage Vanning, being with like minded people, having fun camping out in old vans & fixing them up so they’re not lost to our history. Thank you to our vintage Vanner friends who came to celebrate Robs life today. He was a crazy dancer. Someone asked if anyone knows of a video of Rob dancing? Luckily he made it to the Nats in April… Cathie (smiles)  |

Hi Cathie,
Dona Ricardo and I were so sad to hear of Rob's passing, and send you all our sympathy.
It was always a great pleasure to catch up with Rob at the various Nationals, and I am so glad he was able to make it to the last Nationals at Stanthorpe where a lot of us Vintage Vanners were able to have a natter with him. And of course we don't forget that the two of you played a major role in the planning of the Stanthorpe event. That was an amazing effort given that you were both having to fit the planning and preparation for the Nationals around Rob's regular and frequent medical treatment.
The two of you have also done some amazing work resurrecting a range of vintage caravans, many of which fit into the very rare category and are pretty special for that reason. So all in all Rob and you have made a major contribution to the Vintage Caravan community, and we will remember Rob's part in that. We hope that you will be able to continue your involvement in the community that you both have played such a part in fostering.
Our thoughts are with you and will continue to be so in the days ahead.
Don Ricardo and Dona Ricardo
