He was the first person to ever reply to one of my threads with advice. He even PM'd me a couple times to see how it worked out for me. Real genuine human being.
Yes Bob was a good soul. I miss his posts and wisdom. He helped many people on this site and was happy to do so. I'm sure we will all remember "rules are simple, be nice and join in".
I wish I had made the trip to meet Bob in person. I had several opportunities when traveling north from home, but didn't think he could be gone in the blink of an eye like it happened. Well, not really in the 'blink of an eye', but I didn't recognize the threat. Bob has left a lot of wisdom on our board. Soak it up when you can; there's a lot of it there.
I am newbie here so don't know much about him. But as you all are discussing about him I can understand he was a good soul. I had missed that opportunity to have words with him. I will read his recent post in his memory.
Like Shawn Crea I was "in the area" and never stopped in. I'm sure Bob would have welcomed me like a lost son. Then he would have got to know me and asked me to leave.
Happy Birthday Bob. I'll bet you don't have a shortage of primers or powder. Rest easy.
Bob was ready to answer any question and never called them stupid questions. He really was a good man. Some of the youngsters on the forum may think he was an "old guy", but not from my vantage point! As the song says : ONLY THE GOOD DIE YOUNG. Happy birthday Bob! And Merry Christmas to everyone!
