Our dad, Harley Webber, worked for Bob Wilson at Warm Springs Lumber Company office for nearly 30 years. He once remarked to us
"Bob Wilson is the smartest man I have ever known.

I remember Bob and his family fondly, their hospitality, visiting their family house on the Deschutes and floating on the Deschutes, and skiing with his children who are my age, especially Ginny and Marty, on several trips to White Fish MT in the late 50’s. Thank you for the wonderful memories, and best wishes to all of you.

As a friend and neighbor in Seattle of Bob Wilson's, I regarded him with the greatest respect and affection. He was a true gentleman. This world was a better place for his presence. May his soul rest in peace.

to the whole Wilson Family, Of Riverdale Grade School! The Lockerts remember you well, and wish you well. I still do business with Warm Springs .....Andy Lockert
Ginny and sisters and Hoyt: I had the pleasure of dinners with Coco and Millard Ickes in Idaho a few years back.....Wonderful memories!

As a grade school classmate of Bob's daughter Judy, the Wilson's influence on my early life is quite memorable. In 1958, four of us put into the Deschutes from their lawn in Warm Springs for a 9 day boat trip on the river. A defining experience. His community service to Riverdale and beyond has touched many. It is a honor to have been acquainted with this gentle man.
