Bob was one of the first persons I met when I started calling on NGL accounts on the Gulf Coast in 1977. Bob always made me feel like we had always been good friends. His mannerisms and willingnes to teach others was one of the great gifts that he gave to our industry. He was one of the "good guys" and he will be sorely missed.

I will miss this man, Bob Soisson. During the early years of my entry into this industry, he was my mentor. His council was always appreciated. His business ethics was unsurpassed and his word was his bond, which is the way business should always be conducted. More than that, he was my dear friend and fishing buddy. I will truly miss him.

Bob was one of the really great guys of our industry and will truly be missed. As a young man growing up in the industry Bob was always willing to share with me his wisdom and insight. That was invaluable to me and taught me a great life lesson. I have always followed his example and shared my experiences with the young people in our industry. That creates a "win win" situation as the young people learn frm the past and we create a better and more efficient future organization. I will truly miss Gentleman Bob.
