  • Remembering 5 amazing people lost to COVID-19As we reach the end of another week, it is important to take a moment and pay tribute to the extraordinary lives that have been tragically lost to the pandemic. Today, we remember five individuals whose impact will forever be remembered.One of those individuals is Dave Robinette, a 67-year-old musician who found his true calling on stage. Whether he was playing rock, blues, or country, Dave was most at home with a guitar in his hands. He would perform gigs all across the Western U.S. and even had the opportunity to showcase one of his original songs at the renowned Grand Ole Opry. Sadly, Dave passed away before completing his 12-track album of original songs, but his partner Timbaland remains determined to see the project through in his honor.Another remarkable person lost to COVID-19 is Charlie Nyamkul, a 70-year-old with an infectious charisma that captivated everyone he met. Originally from Thailand, Charlie immigrated to the U.S. in the 1970s and, along with his wife, opened successful restaurants in both Manhattan and Atlanta. His warmth and charm made him beloved by colleagues and guests, and he took great pride in being a positive role model for his grandchildren.Cheryl Gorman, a vibrant and active member of her community, was also taken from us too soon. Known for her contagious joy and her role as the captain of the all-women crew of ISIS, Cheryl was a prominent figure in Louisiana's Mardi Gras celebrations. But beyond her dedication to the festivities, Cheryl was renowned for her generosity and ability to connect with anyone she encountered. She left behind a legacy of kindness that will be cherished by all who knew her.Rob Malone, described by those close to him as selfless and relentlessly positive, was a shining light in his Minnesota community. Although he excelled in sports during high school, Rob's true passion lay in coaching youth sports, where he became a beloved figure within the community. His impact on the lives of the young athletes he mentored is immeasurable, and he will be forever remembered for his unwavering support and encouragement.These remarkable individuals, like so many others taken by COVID-19, leave behind an immeasurable void in the lives of their loved ones and communities. As we mourn their loss, let us also celebrate the lasting impact they had during their time with us. May their memories serve as a reminder to cherish every moment and the importance of kindness in a world that needs it now more than ever.
