Bob was indeed a good man. Many years ago I knew most of family here in Arizona all of which have also passed. I have a lot of fond memories of Bob and his 1967 red GTA mustang. I bought my first car from Bob. Even though I was just a friend of the family I use to refer to Bob as uncle Bob. It´s hard for me to accept he has passed. Rest in peace Uncle Bob.

Peace and prayers of comfort to Bob's family. Bob made me laugh every time we chatted. I loved how he wanted to help people stay safe (at SRP) while driving. He was a gem, and I will dearly miss him.
