Not sure what to say?

Mr.B.will be missed by all,as he touched everyone he met in A special kind of way.

To the Bonnett Family, My deepest sympathy and warmest regards to your entire family upon your loss. Some of my fondest memories transcend time and I find myself at your wonderful bookstore. I say in all sincerity it has been my honor to know many of you personally and I wish you all peace and prosperity the remainder of your days. Bob Cash.

I only met HMB late n life but quite enjoyed each encounter. I also had the pleasure of reading a number of his stories from the pulps. Two of my favorites were the "Crusher O'Shea" stories recently reprinted in the book of the same name. I treasure my signed copy of that book and only wish that he had written more. RIP, my friend.

My sincere condolences to his family at his passing. He will be greatly missed by all whose lives he touched.

I always enjoyed seeing Mr. Bonnett at the store, smoking his cigars and telling jokes while wearing his sport coat & hat.

He will be missed by his family and friends.

Sincerely,

Although he has already been gone from the store for a while, I still expect to round the corner and see him there, with his cigar, sitting in that hard wood chair scrutinizing everyone who approaches his domain. He will be missed.

I knew Mr. B for almost 40 years.
He was an acute, hard-working man
with a droll sense of humor. There
are many around who will miss him.

Mr. B. will be missed by many folks who dearly loved him! He had a wonderful long life and touched many along the way! RIP!
