Not sure what to say?

This deeply saddens me. Bob engineered some of my earliest records and played a big part in my musical growth as a teenager. He will always be remembered.

It was very hard for Ursula to loose her one son. But she was so happy to hear all the friends talk so wonderful about him.Paul and his mother Ursula always will remember Bob as what he was, a lovely, kind caring person

Bob was a gentle giant. He was one of the nicest, sweetest guys I have ever known. He could move huge PA cabinets around by himself, amazing! Not sure how he did it, the PA was usually set up by the time we arrived. Bob will be greatly missed--Kim

Bob helped a lot of us. He will be deeply missed. My memories of Bob will always be sweetly musical.

I feel lucky to have known Bob, he was a Gentle Man and gentleman. In a chaotic situation, (musically), Bob could always settle a storm to a calm...Just one of many great qualities he had. My heart out to all Family and Freinds...Godspeed your journey onward.

Tusko Fatale's Bob Gurske

Bob Gurske was my band mate in Tusko Fatale for over 20 years. I will forever cherish the memories of those wonderful days we spent together creating and playing music. He was an exceptional man with exceptional talent. He will forever be loved and missed.

I knew Bob from the Kings Head Inn. When you were performing, whenever he grimaced, tilted his head to the side and scratched it, you knew something was awry. Not with the sound, but with the performance. Bob was honest and as a musician, I always appreciated that. (Ultra Cindy/Collider)

mr. gurske was my teacher. he was very funny and itelligent. I will miss speaking to him everytime I walk past I his class.

We will miss you. What a great guy. He always was great to talk to between sets at the Kings Head Inn. Thanks Bob for always making sure my voice punched through the mix. ( I Am I)
