Bob was a friend who could always be counted on. We worked together at GM. He worked for me in portable pwr tool when I was a Maint. Electrical Foreman. He rebuild my 383 Mag. engine for my '68 Road Runner. We over 500 hp when he was finished.
He put in a Indy Cam that had too soft of lobes. We switched it over to a Crane Cam. Bob came over to Denny's Auto on Washington St, by the hospital and changed out the cam, springs and lifters. He would not take any money. It wasn't his fault but he stood by it. He was a great guy, great worker and would help anybody.
I will miss his smile and his caring ways. I have nothing but respect for him. You his family are in my prayers.

BOB WILL BE SORELY MISSED BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN. HIS COMPASSION FOR FRIENDS AND FAMILY WAS SECOND TO NONE. HIS TALENTS AND REPUTATION WERE WELL KNOWN FOR A REASON AND I'M VERY HONORED TO CALL HIM MY FRIEND. MY PRAYERS GO OUT TO HIS FAMILY AND ALL THOSE LIVES WHOM HE TOUCHED. REST IN PEACE BUDDY.
