RIP Bob. Bob was a teacher when I was at Tappan middle school in Ann Arbor in the mid 70's. As a middle school student, I learned a lot from Bob. Many skills I still use today. Kind, enthusiastic and multi talented. I still maintain my amateur radio license Bob motivated me to acquire. Thank you Bob. May you rest in peace.

Bob and I worked together on the C&M Railway for 15 years. During that time we had many laughs, countless stories, and tons of good times. We shared trips together to Durand for Operation Lifesaver meetings, always enjoyable. He will be missed by all his many friends.

I have many fond memories of working with Bob on the Coopersville and Marne Railway. Bob kept things lively! His humor will be missed.
