FEAR lost a long-time supporter and behind-the-scenes contributor on June 8, when Bob Kephart passed away.   Most FEAR members wouldn't know about him because he was very modest and always wanted his deeds and contributions kept confidential.  In addition to his financial contributions, he was instrumental in putting ideas and important people together, in ways that benefitted our cause.  I believe he is the one who introduced us to former Congressman Robert Bauman,  who became very active in our cause and served on FEAR's board of directors for a number of years.  In the link below, if you scroll down you'll find a press release from several years  ago that talks about Bob Kephart's advocacy and support for FEAR.  He was a wonderful man, and will be sorely missed.
