We knew Bob for many decades. He helped us purchase both of the homes that we owned in La Palma. When I say "helped" it's an understatement. Bob went way above and beyond just being our real estate broker. We remained friends over the years and would occasionally see each other around town. A few times, my wife and I would visit Bob in his home. We enjoyed seeing and hearing about his hat collection and his various adventures at swap meets and biker events. We even purchased his products many times. We loved his sense of humor and special way of sharing stories. Sadly, the last time we talked by phone in 2024, he knew that his health was declining and I could feel the emotions in his voice. Always helpful, funny and willing to give an honest answer when he felt he needed to offer advice, we will miss Bob. We truly appreciate everything you did for us. You rest changed our life for the better. Thanks again for everything, pal. You really lived life with a passion.
