Robert William "Bob" Carroll

I knew Bob Carroll. When I was a young teenager, he found out that I babysat so he asked me to watch his children. I remember they were so well behaved. I think he only had a couple then. I lived on Stoker Ave. I think Bob and family lived on Lodge? Anyway, he was a very classy and polite man that loved his family very much. P.S. He paid me well (hee-hee).

Reno has lost an icon. Bob moved to Reno and made it his own throughout the towns "hey-day" and beyond! He loved Reno
. Especially the good ol' days when Reno was a rockin' small town and everyone knew each other. I'll miss his stories, his interviews of other important Reno residents and most recently his radio show. Heartfelt condolences to his family and the woman by his side, Marva!

Wow. What a loss to Reno history. I worked for Bob at Media Consultants. He was funny, interesting and a good boss. My husband had worked on his plane. At the agency, when he wanted to disagree without disagreeing he would say: "I don´t know, that I´m not sure that you´re not right." I still use this today with friends and clients. Thanks, Bob.

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief, and find comfort from knowing that God draws close to the broken-hearted.
