Just being around him was a breath of fresh air. He exemplified what it was to be a gentleman and a wonderful God-fearing man.

Bob and I worked together at the Chevrolet dealer in Crestview almost 40 years ago. He was an excellent mechanic, had a good sense of humor and a great storyteller. We have stayed in touch all these years and I was privileged to call him friend. He will be missed!
