I agree with this sentiment.
Me too. If we can do that little for his family.

Yes, if when I hear back on funeral details, I will put something together and let every know.

Wow, this was somewhat unexpected. Bob and I often butted heads when I was active here, but he was always a great guy to have on these forums, knowledgable and standing for the voice of reason. I am sure this community will not be the same without him.

Scott, do you happen to know how he went? What finally got him?

Power surge? No idea Arden. Probably stress from when you gave him a hard time. His son didn't know at the time, and I don't know if they will perform a autopsy or not, or if it will forever remain a mystery.

Heh, if that's the case, it certainly took a long time to manifest. I haven't spoken with Bob in many moons...

Please do keep all of us posted as you get more details.

I'd also like to add my condolences and pass on how much I've come to respect Bob over the past few years. He was always helpful, kind and thoughtful and his absence will be felt by all of us here at the Macosx.com community.

ElDiabloConCaca will become famous soon enough
bobw was one of the first members I recognized daily when I joined 6 years ago. This news is shocking and saddening. When something of this gravity happens, it really makes you realize just how "personal" the internet has become: connecting people from all walks of life that would have never crossed paths without it.

My life is improved by everyone I meet, whether in person or not. bobw is no exception, and will be missed greatly.

My condolences and prayers go out to all who were fortunate enough to be touched by his presence, in the flesh or virtual.
