Bob was a wonderful person. I can remember growing up, watching Bob and my dad (Sal Olguin) working together. They always seemed to have so much fun. My dad will miss Bob and so will we.

I've worked with Bob a little over the years. He is a man you will never forget. Could energize a job with his humor and manner. And he would give you the shirt off his back. Once I took a call for the scrubbers at the Brush powerhouse where he was foreman. He decided I wasn't dressed warm enough and insisted I wear his new down parka for the day.

Saw you for the last time just two weeks ago. Same old Bob, full of life with laughing eyes. Thirty years since we first met, a few more until we meet again. I will miss the humor you brought to us all.
