Jonny, did you mean to type October 2014?

Rob' link above to the Obituaries shows Oct 9, 1955 ~ June 23, 2015

Something not right with the dates, unless it was a typo. Just asking.

I did not know Bob, may he RIP

I never met Bob but he was one of the first members here to reach out to me.  I bought a few items over the years from him.  My favorite was a water blade.

RIP Bob

Could have been his wife. If you notice his name was removed from the suppliers list. The Heritage Woodworks listing should also be removed as Drew Tibcken passed away in 2014 and I believe is no longer operating.

Correct. As I wrote, last post 24 April. I have (as I always do when this happens) disabled his email address so that PM's or mails do not bother his family.

It may have been a family member trying to cancel his account, which expired in Dec 2015.

Looks definitely like someone from his Family wanted to close his account.

My last post to Bob was a year ago when he posted his opinion on our membership fees. He never replyed to my post, perhaps he found my post too long.

His last post was in April 2015, he will be missed not only in our Group also in the 300sl forum. I understand he has been a member here since the Yahoo days of our site.
