Met Bob in 1980 when we had the same employer. Bob was a very quiet person at that time but very friendly and capable. It didn't take long to learn he loved to play golf as did I. Bob and I, and a third person-Don Krause- played many rounds of golf over the years. We and our wives vacationed together for more than twenty years. He was a good guy and a straight shooter and will be missed by many. Rest in peace.
