Condolences

Condolence From: J.J. Taschuk
Condolence: Just learned that Bob passed. The world is a darker place without him. Unfortunately in this politically correct time, it won't be known how much of a realist he was. He was a real man. If you knew him, you would understand; if you didn't, no amount of space allocated here could explain.

Bob was true and spoke the way he saw the world. He knew he wasn't perfect, and did not expect you to be. Strive to be: yes. Expect to be: no. I'm sure it was partially due to his competitiveness from his childhood youth. Many good stories shared.

There is not enough room here to describe Bob. I said that already. I know. Shock, even knowing his age. However, you had to be there. Stand by him. Talk with him. Oh, don't think you weren't going get away without a possible argument with him. Fact: You would laugh with him. He was a measuring stick...not measuring you, but you eventually trying to stand up to the height.

Bob could be rough and gruff at times, but I did not see malice. He told you the positives and not-so-positives he encountered in life. Did I say he was real?

I told him.
