Robert William "Bob" Meyer

I played football for Pattonville Holman Jr. High when Bobby played for one of Ferguson-Florissant´s junior high schools (Cross Keys?) Both teams finished 6-0 as freshmen. Didn´t play each other.

I just heard of Bobby´s passing and my prayers are with Sue and the entire family. My name is Paul Koch and I had he privilege of playing football with Bobby at McCluer North.

I got injured in our Hazelwood Central game (by the way, first play from scrimmage, Bobby went off tackle for 80 yards and...

I don´t know if anyone will even see this, but I just found this on Jan 17, 2023. I am sorry to Bobby´s family for this sad event of his passing. I coached football at McCluer North. Although I was a defense coach, I was around him much of his time at North. During his days at MU, he´d practice rugby with my Falcon club during summers to keep fit for fall. We thought he´d play with us, but other life events prevented that. His brother Herbie was my fb manager on the soph team and he did...
