Gang ..
I type this with a heavy heart.. One of the Pioneers in our hobby had a Massive Stoke and is not expected to recover. He has Minutes if Not hours to Live.I received and email from a Member of the Slammers. out of KC.
"I JUST (12:55 PM) received a phone call from Jan Paeth with bad news. Bob late yesterday suffered massive seizures, is in a drug-induced coma, they have removed life-support expecting him to die within a matter of minutes or hours. His family got to visit him and Jan, God love her, actually took time to call me. She will be sending or calling info about the memorial service to be held later when that time comes. "
When I hear of More I will send the Info..
I have met Bob about four times.. and every one was a special time.
You see Bob grew Up in My Home town area..
Richmond, California. (San Francisco Bay area).
Every time we got together we would reminisce about the Ole Hometown and what it used to be..
We would Laugh and Kid one another as only You could with Bob.
I learned alot from Him In these short times we had together.
Plastic welding his custom tips and such.
Lets Keep Bob and his family in our thoughts during these times.
