<p>[QUOTE="USS656, post: 1175166, member: 6641"]<font size="2">It is very sad news! I traded messages with Bob early this year and he at the time said he was doing good. I knew he wasn't doing well but was keeping it positive. I think about Bob every day. I have the award from Bob and RickieB on my desk at home from the first round of SEG presentations. It is a constant reminder to focus on learning and sharing. That is what Bob inspired in many of us here that read or wrote posts in the paper money forum. Every time I am out looking to pick up a new piece with a unique or popular engraving I think of the group Bob helped put together. </font></p><p> </p><p><font size="2">My condolences to his family and close friends! Bob was a special guy who often thought of others even when he was suffering. He was a really good guy that many here enjoyed sharing our hobby with. I know this hobby is a foreign thing to those that are not involved but it can have a positive impact on those that are influenced by members that give back. Bob always gave more and was rewarded in how we embraced the idea that it is more than just buying cool objects or trying to make a buck by buying low and selling high. Even when his heath was a daily struggle he would stop in and offer encouraging words. In the event that you didn't understand why he spent time collecting/learning about security engraving I hope the comments of the other members and mine can help you understand this one passion amongst I am sure many others. I am so very sorry for your loss!</font></p><p> </p><p> </p><p><font size="2">Fair Winds and Following Seas My Friend!</font>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
