    Oh man, i was hoping maybe he was getting just a bit better, but so glad he's at peace now. Rest in Peace, Robin. I feel so sad for Barry, losing all three of his brothers.

    Just so sad, I'm a teen of the 70's and the Bee Gees were a hidden pleasure of mine.

    Wow, I'd just googled him earlier to find out how he was doing. Sooooo sad for their mom. R.I.P. Robin, you were a good guy.

    R.I.P Robin. This was on the cards for a while, but still, such a shame. Far too early for him. Hope he's catching up with Maurice

    I feel like Music is dying right in front of our eyes. So sad. Those brothers made some great music. If you get a chance, check out videos of them singing live on Youtube. Gorgeous voices, great songwriters.

    RIP, Robin. I know he must have suffered quite a bit of late and I'm glad he's at peace now. Their poor mom, though. And the brother who is left--that must be so painful.
