Bob became a good friend because my cat would visit him n sit on his back porch. Bob had said previously that he was not a cat lover but loved the pic I would send to him occasionally. Bob also loved rocks and was very knowable about the different make up of rocks. I loved to sit and visit with my buddy and friend Bob!!

Bob was my group leader at Ampex on AVR-2 FST when I started in September of 1977. He was also my trail riding partner and friend. A man to be admired and respected.
