I may have been one of the very first guys Bobby worked with on the railroad. We spent much of my 34 years working together or spending union time , partying. Had him to my house, met my wife and kids. Honey's, Izzy's union clambakes. gave him tips on the d.d. Yeah right! Great guy. Great friend. Will miss him.
