Bob had a distinguished career, serving 15 years with the Oceanside Police Department, first as a detective in vice & narcotics and later as a sergeant in the violent crimes unit. In 1984, he joined PORAC and rose to become the Supervising Attorney for the Southern California PORAC Labor Offices. Bob co-founded the Law Offices of Castle & Krause with Richard H. Castle Jr. in 1986, which later merged with The Petersen Law Firm. He concluded his career at Bobbitt, Pinckard & Fields, where he found fulfillment in advocating for others.
Outside of work, Bob was an active member of AA for over twenty years and enjoyed water skiing, camping, traveling, and riding his Harley.
Bob is survived by his father Robert R. Krause, stepmother Zonnie Krause, sister Belinda Moore, brother Russell Krause, daughter Heidi Krause, son Robert E.

My condolences to the family. I worked for Bob and Dick in the late 80s into the 90s when they had their office in Temecula. Even though I worked for him, I considered Bob a friend and I cry as I write this tribute. I will never forget when I got sick and had to have surgery without health insurance, Bob and Dick gave me a bonus equal to the hospital bill and then started a health insurance plan so I could have health benefits. Bob was smart, lively and very gracious. He often invited me to spend time in his Canyon Lake home with his family swimming and barbecuing--Bobby was maybe 5 then, blond, and cute as a button. Bob was a stand up guy and a great boss; he taught me a lot about the law and the importance of integrity. The last time I talked with Bob was in 2015. I will miss him, knowing that he was always just a phone call away, and all that he stood for. May he rest in peace and his family find comfort.
Vaya con Dios,
Pamela Grace

My condolences to Bob´s family. He was my "little cousin" growing up. It´s hard to think of him as gone from this world. Rest in peace Bobby.
Your cousin
