I been a member here for several years now. Bob was also willing to answer tech questions, no matter how difficult. Although I never met him, it is clear he was a great man. Of course are thoughts are prays are with his family.

I haven't been here much lately and was shocked to hear the news. My condolences to those who survive him - his wife, children and grandchildren.

Bob was one of the sane voices that made this site the helpful community that it was and is. He was always professional and usually spot-on with his tech advice. Maybe it was that down-home avatar, but I think it was more the wisdom in his posts that endeared him to me and surely to many others.

Bob - RIP - you will be missed.

My condolences and prayers to his family and his friends.

This just hit me like a ton of bricks.

I couldn't have said it better.

I didn't even know he was ill. Or was he? Sounds pretty sudden ... a heart attack maybe? Does anyone know what happened?

At any rate, Bob will definitely be missed. I know he has helped me on numerous occasions, and for that I will always remember his kindness (and patience with my annoyances! LOL).

To Bob's family and close friends: I didn't know him personally (only from this board), but my heart and thoughts go out to you all.
