To all family and friends of Bob:
Although I only have known Bob since our store opened in '96, he will always be regarded in my heart as a dear old friend and certainly a part of the Sportsman's Warehouse family. No one in this store can make a better cup of morning coffee and I will miss our morning chats very much. Our prayers are with your
family.

I've never met someone as caring and warmhearted as Bob. Any time someone needed help, they called on Bob. He was truly a wonderful man and will be dearly missed by everyone who knew him, but especially me. With love - goodbye honey.
