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.
