Robert Charles Lange

Bob's birthday was on 3/14 & Deborah's was on 3/13. Each year I would take them to lunch on one their birthdays to celebrate. We would close the office & off we would go.

We were in our car and my husband ask me what ever happened to Bobby Lange. We looked him up today and we are sad to find his obituary. My husband Jeff recalls a ski trip he took with Bob to McCall Idaho. I just remember Bob's smiling face and moral support regarding the teasing I endured being the coaches daughter. Bob was a smart kid and such a great football player. Built like a muscular fire plug my dad always use to say. He was never afraid to befriend an under classman and join you in the library to study or give you a ride home after school. We are grieved at his passing. God has another angel.

Bob was truly one of the most considerate, kind and compassionate people I've ever met. These are the most important qualities I think people can have. I will always treasure my memories of being with him and I'll think of him in so many situations. RIP my friend, I was so fortunate to know you.

Bob was such a kind man. I got to know Bob through the CPA services he provided my employer. For the past several years Bob generously supported my son's baseball team and always made a point to ask me how his baseball career was going! Lol. I know Bob loved his family dearly and looked forward to his outings with his brother/friends. Bob will be dearly missed.

Bob was always ready with a reassuring grin. No matter how flustered I was - he had a way of helping me see just how silly whatever it was that was freaking me out at that moment, really was. Early morning tax conference banter will not be the same without him this year.

I remember our graduation night (PHS 1974) a few of us ended up playing with an old toy building set, and Bob was there. It was not the usual party situation, but as with all things with Bob, we had a good time.
I remember after the fire at Ricos, getting the tour of the rebuilding efforts with Bob. He was always cheerful, playful, a person everyone liked. He is missed. I had really hoped to connect with him at our reunion next year.

So sorry to hear of Bob´s recent, sudden passing. I was a classmate of Bob´s ( 74) and remember him as a wonderful addition to our class. We will miss him at our 50 th reunion next summer. RIP Bob

We are so sorry to hear of Bobs passing. We really enjoyed meeting with him every year and sharing stories. It was never just about taxes. We always had a lot to talk about. Our warmest thoughts and condolences to his family.

RIP

I first was aware of Bob when I called the football games for PHS. I called his name and number many times as he always seem to gain yardage and never give back any.

I remember Bob from high school and was so looking forward to reconnecting at our reunion this coming summer. My condolences to each of you, his passing is a reminder of how much impact a person can have on others - Bob had an engaging smile and sense of humor that I remember to this day.

We are so sorry to learn of Bob's death. Though we only saw Bob once a year, at tax time, he left a lasting impression and a very positive one. He will be missed by many, we have no doubt. Joanna Guilfoy Curren and Tom Curren.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

So glad we got to meet Bob this past summer. Our sympathy to all of Bob´s family and hoping you can find peace in your loving memories.

The obituary really sums up all of the greatness that was Bob. He never failed to make the people around him smile or laugh. I am so grateful I had the opportunity to call him my friend. My prayers for his family.

This article surmises Bob perfectly, he was a friend to all and all around good guy. Thanks for the memories Buddy, rest in peace. My condolences to his family and friends. Farewell #21....

The Butler family is so sorry to hear of Bob's passing. We all will have fond memories of times spent with Bob in Vandal country. We were fortunate to have known Bob, and will keep all of you in our prayers. Love you all you girls!

Bob was my partner in our CPA firm. When ever I had a question he always had the time to listen, offer advice and if he didn't know the answer he would search until he found it. Will miss his smile.

So sorry to hear of Bob´s passing, way too soon. I remember Bob as always having a smile on his face and a willing conversation. He was a definite part of my growing up in Pullman and I´m so sad I won´t see him at our reunion.
