From Melba to Marsing, from Caldwell to Grangeville and points beyond; many are the trap clubs where I was privileged to spend time shooting with (sometimes against) Bob. He was a good friend and a great shot. He will be missed.

Please allow me to commend whom ever wrote Bobs obit. It so reflected of his life, passions and personality of the wonderful person he was. He volunteered his intellect/experience by serving on the advisory committee of the late Machine Shop program at Nampa High School. He was a true friend and helped the students anytime he could which was so appreciated. He will be missed by many as a true friend and a talented master craftsman. May God bless him and grant him eternal happiness. A long time admirer and friend, Rollie Pywell

I knew Bob through working with him at Selkirk Metalbestos. We had many enjoyable conversations over those 8 years and I remember him fondly. He was a good man.

Bob will be missed by all his friends and loved ones. He was a great friend to have.
Always a smile and good word. He loved his family and friends, his dog, and his trap shooting buddies.
He was always there to help with what ever was needed.
Sorry that we won't be able to attend as we will be on vacation. God bless all
his wonderful family.

I met Bob about twenty years ago through trapshooting and worked with him numerous times. He was always happy to help with any chore that needed to be done and was very good at doing it. He helped the Marsing Gun Club with numerous projects and was very active at the Caldwell Gun Club. I enjoyed visiting with Bob and talking about Bud and his lovely wife Esther. I also enjoyed Brian watching him grow from a little guy to a grown man and in the later years met Jerry and Debbie. I will miss Bob and he will be missed by the trap shooting community.
