I today just heard the passing of Bob. Bob and i last spoke negotiating a deal we purchased after the gavel last year. I had known bob via the Oil and Gas Clearinghouse for several decades.

Bob was a true gentlemen, told it like it was, and a pleasure ALWAYS to do business with.

Bob will certainly be missed in the industry. I really hate to hear of Bob’s passing.
