I was looking for your number to give you a call but I don't have it anymore. I hope life is treating you well in N.C.

Thanks for posting the details, Doug.

I'd like to say goodbye to my friend, but I won't be able to make the service.

The cemetery is near my brother's house, actually closer, and is a possibility.

Just found out about Bob's passing. RIP Bob, not sure but I may have been Bob's only HPDE student that time at VIR, not sure if he ever recovered and instructed again. Roger was there too, it's been 5 years since we lost him.

I am rarely on facebook and not so much on the forum these days, so I never saw this. Don B. just called me yesterday and told me the tragic news. So sad!
His daughter and my stepdaughter were in the same acting school, so I'd run into him from time to time, as well when he came to me as a patient.
Bob was a good guy and a true car guy. He will be missed dearly!

This is sad, I could't believe it. Yes he was always a helping hand when ever I ask for it at a track event.

I just bought a C6 Z06 and Bob was the first guy that I texted. I thought it strange that he didn't reply so googled and found his Obit. Devastated! It been about 5 years since I stopped commuting to NYC. Back then I sat next to him on the ferry every day. I hope everyday in heaven is a track day and every weekend is a Steelers win. RIP

Just went on the forum and found this terrible news. I haven’t been on here since probably when Alex disappeared. Didn’t really know him that well but for the great runs with the Wolfpack and BBQs at motons.
