I'm so sorry to hear of Bob's passing. He was always so full of joy and enthusiasm for everything he did. He was a vital part of the Sons of the Desert, and we will miss him terribly. My condolences to all of you.

We are saddened to learn of Bob's passing. We met him recently through the American Historical Jukebox Society, but he made an impression quickly as a friendly, welcoming man who deeply enjoyed the records and jukeboxes, and who was keen to share his treasures. Bob was very sharp, a clearly skillful technician. We had been looking forward to seeing Bob every month and getting to know him better over time. He was one of the good guys, and we are sorry for your loss.

I first met Bob in 1984 when he would service our computer. Right away we shared a passion for music and quickly developed a terrific friendship over the years that included attending several concerts. He was an amazing DJ always playing the best music and entertaining the audience with trivia questions. What I'll always remember about Bob was his kindness and how he loved to make people laugh. I cherish our time together and glad his suffering is over.

Bob was a valued friend and member of the delco cruisers. Always there to assist and a great source of info about music and jukeboxes and car show info . Bob was always ether ultimate gentleman and truly a very sincere person

MY dear friend for over 20 years I miss you already. R.I.P. in Heaven with you dogs and tunes from you jukebox.

I met Bob through mutual dog friends. There aren't enough adjectives to describe Bob's wonderful personality. He was the kindest and sweetest gentleman and he adored his Bernese Mountain Dogs. It was a pleasure to know Bob and always great to see his smile. My condolences to his family and to all the friends he made.

It was a real blessing to have known Bob. He was a great friend; always generous with his time and talents, and had a wonderful sense of oh-so-dry humor. Having met him from a common interest in coin-op machines, it was a pleasant surprise to find he was also a record fan and thankfully a FORD man as well. It simply will not be possible to hear a really hot 78 record without thinking of him. You can bet that wherever Bob's at tonight there's great music playing. He will be so sorely missed.

I knew Bob for many years through the American Historic juke Box Society. Bob was a gentleman who would help anybody. He helped me with my amplifier to my AMI C. Boy, does that thing sing to this day! Bob will be missed by all members of the AHJBS. Rest in peace dear friend and God bless you and your family

We are so sorry for your loss. Bob will always be remembered and the good times we had at the Two Tars and the car shows.

He will be missed !

All our best wishes to you in these sad times

Bob is one of the sweetest guys I have ever known. He loved people, jukeboxes, antique cars, 16mm movies, music, fixing things, telling jokes, and Bernese Mountain Dogs. He was a great friend, always candid and honest, and always willing to lend a hand. He taught me a great deal with his extended knowledge on many technical subjects. I can't say enough about how nice he is. I truly hope to meet him in the next world and renew our friendship. Until then, I send my sincere condolences to Jeanette and Jennifer and her family as well as his many friends who will miss him dearly, as I do.

Dear Jeanette and Jennifer,

I wish I could be there, but my spirit and heart is. One thing of many things I remember about Bob was his passion for Roller Coasters.

Last time I talked to Bob, I said I was going to Denver, and he told me about a Roller Coaster in Denver. He made me laugh many times.

My deepest sympathy to you and family also friends of Bob. He was my long time friend and fellow dog owner. We had many a nights together in Media with the Dogs!!! GOD BLESS he will be missed.

I knew Bob through the AHJBS.. I will always remember Bob as a wonderful guy. He was always pleasant and eager to share his knowledge. Bob never had a bad word to say about anyone. We shared many a conversation about our mutual love of Jukeboxes, Film and Cars!. Bob guided me a bit when I first started collecting films. He enlightened me as to why he loved the RCA 400. I believe these were the projectors he used. He also shared a few of his many cartoons with us at the AHJBS meetings.. I am glad to have known him.

Bob will be sorely missed. He was a wonderful gentleman. My deepest sympathies to his family. May he rest in peace.

Bob was a special friend. We shared many hobbies together. He was such a smart patient person. He could fix anything!! I am honored to have been his friend & will miss him terribly!!
