I've spent the last 40 years living through many of life's great experiences. Many of those have involved world travel and music. I've just retired from 27 years in public school music education teaching my last 14 years in Silverton. My wife and I will have only one continent left to visit after a trip to Antarctica this coming December. Looking forward to catching up with the Class of '69.

Ever since learning of Bob’s passing, I’ve been flooded with many memories, all of them quite delightful.  What a treat is was to have grown up in a time and a place with so many great garage bands.  Bob was definitely a dues paying member of the, “Salem Garage Band Society of the 60’s.”  “The Pit”, “The Exit”, Leslie Sock Hops, South High Dances!  Great times!  Although I was always the singer in a “rival” band, I greatly admired Bob’s vocal ability and his stage presence; he knew how to sell a song.  And oh those wonderful, sometimes hazy, days in the basement listening to all the new tunes.  I think my most long-lasting memory of Bob has to be his pleasant, slightly impish, smile.  It kind of made me feel like I was hanging out with a Leprechaun who had just found his pot of gold and was loving his life.  R.I.P. Bob, and keep on singin’!
