Bob and I became friends in our senior years. He was a great guy to hang out with, bright and funny and always looking for a little adventure. Right before Prom, we decided we didn't want to look like every other guy in a white dinner jacket, we wanted to look like James Bond. So we drove up to a tux rental place in Milwaukee, in his black '48 (as I recall) Ford. We got these awesome midnight blue silk dinner jackets. The trip was a caper of sorts... it may have involved skipping school (though I've sworn, elsewhere on these pages, to having skipped only once),  it may have involved beer, and I recall that whatever we tacked onto the end of the trip, I didn't get home til dawn the next day, and had to sneak into the house). 

Anyway, Bob was a cool guy, and I'm sorry he's passed.

Bob was a good guy.  Left us way too soon.
