Bob was so much more than a neighbor, he was a very special man and friend. I met Bob shortly after he and Linda moved in nextdoor shorty after we bought our own home here in Osseo.
Bob was so friendly and outgoing and we seemed to have an instant connection, our both being fellow service members (yes, Airmen and GIs do get along, lol), motorcycle enthusiasts, and Cubs fans. Since then Bob was always there with a friendly smile and a "Hello Nicky" whenever I saw him. I don't think he ever knew that he was in a very select group, as I only let my Mom and Grandma call me Nicky, but somehow it felt natural and ok for him to do so. He was just that kind of a special guy.
Bob was also one of the smartest mechanics I've known. He was always there to help lend a hand, and I always appreciated the explanation that came with his teaching me how to "fix it myself. "
I will never forget one of my most recent memories when we were fixing the breakline on my truck, just a few weeks ago, in my garage, just as it was starting to get cold outside. While it may have taken us a few trips to NAPA, we got 'er done as they say.
While I am sorrowful, I also take solace, as I am sure Bob is happy now that he is back with his one true love Linda, as they share eternity in heaven with each other and their heavenly Father.
Rest in Peace Bob, ya da' Man!
