The world lost a classic. Boobsie had a gift of recalling events and stories like nobody else! To listen to his presentation and the delivery of them will be missed. Bob always contacted me with details regarding some important event that he felt I should know about. Although rarely one to complain, I know the last few years his health was very much a burden. Rest in ☮️ My Friend
