I’m very sorry to hear that Paul. I was wondering why we have not see Robert in any of your videos lately.

May fond memories of Bob bring you comfort during this hard time in your life. Look back on all the good memories you were able to have and smile at the fact that you were able to share these before he passed away.

The Model A World will miss him.

I pray that grieving for Bob will be short and replaced by fond memories of him. He did a lot of good for the Model "A" hobby. May God rest his soul in Heaven.

Paul, so sorry to hear about Bob's passing. I'm relatively new to the Model A world, but I've watched many of the videos with you and Bob and his enthusiasm for the hobby give me hope that I can enjoy this great hobby well into my older years. We will all miss him! Scott

What’s the video about or the loss? I don’t do utube, and there’s no description here.

First time I went to the Turlock Swap Meet in modern times (early 2020s) I bought an engine front cover, timing cover, side plate and oil tube from Bob, in preparation for building a Burtz engine. I didn’t have a wagon with me and had to haul all that cast iron around in a backpack. Can’t relive the memory of those sore shoulders and sore back without associating it with Bob. Condolences, Paul, a heck of a loss.

Very sorry to hear Bob has left us. Another icon gone. Comisserations to you but keep up the good work you and he did.
I am sure he would want that Paul.

Keep doing what you are doing to honor him. An excellent role model. Pay it forward.
Bob.

Sad day Paul,
Bob was a great guy. Bill Pugh and I had the pleasure of spending an afternoon with him a couple of years ago and picking up a few parts we needed.
We were having such a great time we didn't want to leave but had to get going to drive back to the SF Bay Area.
One of the take aways he left us with was the connection to Sammy at Arizona Model A
another great guy.
I know how close you guys were and could feel it by the way he spoke about you.

Love your videos,

Dodge Riedy
