Bob was one of the most down-to-earth men I have ever had the privilege of knowing. This is not only a personal loss, nor is it only a loss to the Rod and Custom community, but it is also a severe loss to society. You will be missed, remembered, and your memory will be celebrated.

I graduated from Tech a year behind him. We did not know each other very well, but met again in 1984 when he started his own business. Wehave remained friends ever since. Bob was one of the most decent men I haved ever met. I am out of the country and cannot attend the funeral, but know Bobi that I am thinking of you.

Dear Bobbi and Family,
We are sorry for your loss. Bob was truly a one of a kind individual. It is rare to know anyone in this world that is as giving and caring as he. Character is what you do when no one else is watching and Bob certainly had strong character. He was loved by many and will be missed by all.

Dear Bobbi and Family,
We are saddened to hear of Bob's passing.He certainly was a wonderful man with a heart of gold ever ready to help neighbors and friends. He was always gifted with his wit, which made many of us laugh. It was always a pleasure to see him. May he now be pain free and riding his street rods on the highways of heaven !

When you knew Bob you knew a friend. His joy was in helping others. A gift of natural engineering talent and common sense that can only be described as uncommon are two of the traits Bob held. His awareness of other's needs and his constant desire to help someone in need will be forever remembered and a benchmark to inspire too.
