Many of Bob's railroad friends are going to miss that twinkle associate with the tall tales and jokes that were so much a part of Bob's repertoire. His laughter will be well remembered, as well as his photography and memories of model railroading.

To Bob's Family and Friends
Just wanted to say how much we fondly remember our friendship with Bob and the great times we had together with him and the other Model RR HO Trakers during our time in Madison. We also thank him for his good work fixing our appliances over the years. We are all worse off with Bob no longer with us. God will really enjoy his humor and smile. Our Prayers are with You All!
