I've known Bob for alot of years. We played a little of softball together and he was always just a great guy. I know he loved to ride his cycles as he always talked about it when I met with him at Brennegans. Anyway....God bless Bob and his family...he was a good man. You have my deepest sympathies.

I went to Logan with Bob. Also, bought several vehicles from him at Brenengen´s in West Salem. He was always a pleasure to see.
To a friend: Rest in peace, Bob.

Bob and I went to Logan H.S. but went in different directions following graduation. It was a pleasure to run into him again at both our 50 and 50+2 reunions. I will certainly miss him.
