My first job in show business was working the Ice Capes in Philadelphia in September, 1962. I was a week from turning 16.
Bobby Barnes was the steward on the job, my boss.
I worked with Bob until he left town and settled in Las Vegas.
I'll always remember him for being exceptionally kind and giving and willing to share his knowledge.
Bob was a good man.
God bless you, Brother. Say "Hi" to my Dad for me. See you on the other side.
