Dear Shirley & Family,
So very sorry for your loss. Kermit said he talked to Bob the other week when he brought the tractor to add to our display. Always a kind word. And he sure enjoyed talking to the guys about my Silver King tractor. Thanks so much for sharing him with us all. He touched our lives a lot over the 30 yrs I have lived here.

The Mader Family,
I got to know Bob many years ago when he worked at the foundry. I was a truck driver and Bob was always willing and able to go the extra mile to help all the truckers make their job a little easier. He always had a story to tell about farm tractors and fire equipment. He took so much pride in everything he was involved in. He will be greatly missed by all he touched. The last words he spoke to me were "Well we tried".Rest in Peace good friend, till we meet again.

Mrs. Mader and family: My husband and I had the privilege of working with Bob at Kline Foundry and continuing our friendship after it closed. Bob took the role as "fill-in father" to me at Kline when my own parents moved 120 miles away. He also helped my husband get his work at Browning Printing 22yrs ago. Since hearing of his passing, I have thought about time spent with Bob and I have been sad and have laughed. I will never forget yelling at him when I caught him eating candy bars at work...
