I just found out about Bob's passing from the Summer 2022 issue of the Forum arriving yesterday (8/11/2022). I remember all the times he and Rosemary attended the LHA Eastern Ohio Chapter meetings and conventions over the past 20 years, after meeting them at the 2004 LHA national convention at Mountaineer Racetrack/Casino in Chester WV in June 2004. I spoke with Rosemary several times before then to get information about the LHA and membership. Lots of wonderful memories of Buy-Ways and trips. He will surely be missed!!!!!
