Not sure what to say?

He was our first Real Estate Broker. What a great guy! I can remember he always threw his keys up in the air when he entered our office - AND caught them. It meant something to him.

What an amazing man, have some great memories at the house with the Zumdieck family - he will be missed.

What a joy it was to work with Bob. He made me smile whenever I saw him. He will always be one of those unforgetable characters that touches our lives and leaves a wonderful, lasting impression.
He will not be forgotten.
Peace & Blessings to Betty and all who knew him.

I didn't know Bob well but when he came in a room, it lit up! My thoughts and prayers are with Betty and all of Bob's family.

if bob was of the Rankin family who attended Ireland-of-Paridise school in WA., I knew Glen Rankin, possibly a brother. I had 3 brothers, Frank, Milton, and Robert. I am the only survivor of the Selfridge family. Clarence and Fannie were our grandparents. My family thought fondly, always, of the Rankins. My name is Carolyn, the baby sister.
My sympathy to the family.

Bob's years spent riding herd on the Lake Oswego office of Barbara Sue Seal Properties were most memorable. We all knew that under that gruff exterior was a kind heart that cared deeply about us as agents and our clients. His advise was always spot on. We share your loss- know you are in our prayers and hearts.

Bob was one of our favorite Brokers. He pioneered the Wilsonville Office (when we were BSue. He and his wife moved to Port Townsend which was his dream of retirement. So glad he was able to do that. Joe and Carol Torres

We are in our home for over 20 years because Bob went the extra mile for us. Upon us moving to Oregon, he listened, advised, back tracked to find our home and handled us with tremendous respect. We thanked him once and wish we could do so again. Our family owes him much. Our prayers will notify God of your generosity Mr. Rankin. May God be with your wife during this time.

Bob enriched every life he touched...I am grateful to have been associated with his talent, common sense and humor. His memory will forever be in our hearts.
