Bob was an amazing Barber he was great with the children whenever my son would go to get his haircut he always had a great time Bob made it a fun experience and not scary he cut my son's hair from the time he was too until he was about 12 years old truly a great man and will be missed so much by so many

I'm so sorry I did not know in time to show my respects.  I met Bob in 1963 when I was a senior in high school.  My dad had always cut my hair and I wanted to let it grow some, so at 17 "years old I go my first "barbershop"  haircut.  We have been friends ever sense.  When I was in college or in the army I would try to wait till I got back home to see Bob.  He talked about his family so much I feel like I know some of you.
He will be missed by me.
All my best to Mary and the family.
Bob Euler

Mary and family,
Blaine and I were so sad to hear of Bob's passing. Our condolences and prayers are with you and the family. He was a very special person.

  “May the Angels lead him into paradise, may the Martyrs receive him at his coming, and take him to Jerusalem, the holy city. May the choir of angels receive him, and may he with the once poor Lazarus, have rest eternal.” RIP Bob.

Dee and Blaine

Sorry to hear this.Just yesterday I was telling my girlfriend that Bob cut my hair ever since I was a little kid. When came back from England in 2005 I looked him up for a cut and continued to  go to the house to get a trim . Really loved the dude,funny and caring, just a great atmosphere in his shop everything. My heart is sadden,he was like a second dad.

Bob was a wonderful person! My wife and I are so blessed to have worked with Bob and Mary in the 80's and 90's.  We are so grateful to Bob for his love and friendship.  Our prayers for Mary and family and we celebrate  the life of a truly wonderful person!!

Rest well Bob. I enjoyed working for you at Bobs All Pro many years ago.

To Mary and family. Dyla and I loved Bob. He was a friend and my barber. He started cutting my hair when I was 14 and was still cutting it 50 + years later. It was always great stories and conversations every 3 weeks on haircut day. Rest in peace my dear friend you will greatly missed

Mary and the whole other Hurla families,  Judy and I offer our deepest condolences for your loss of the Best and Beloved Barber and Friend a person could have for the over 55 years I have known him as my Barber and Friend. I will truly miss him and cherish the memories of him. I still remember the nights we spent dancing with everyone and the laughter and fun times we shared together. I hope you all know how special Bob was to us and everyone he touched. I send our Love and Prayers to all of you and especially you Mary on the loss of your Husband, Father, Grandfather and Great Grandfather. I know he is in Heaven but I also know he is golfing with his friends and then having a margarita with them.

Bob Was A Wonderful Person always smiling and in Good Spirits. He cut my hair for 15 years. I guess the Lord needed a Great Barber 💈 God Bless This Family and Friends 🙏💕

Such an amazing man, he was my Dads barber for over 50 years.   Rest in Peace, Bob!

This is a core memory for myself & my kids. ❤️

I’ve know Bob for at least 25 years as he used to cut my brother’s hair as a kid. So when my son, Oran needed a cut we called bob. Oran would come up to me and say “it’s time to call Bob, mom”. He will greatly be missed.

I've known Bob for over 25 years, not only did he cut my hair we were friends, enjoyed visiting with him, he was a kind person, my condolences to the family!

I have known Bob since I was 16, so over 40 years.    He was always quick to tell you what he thought and even spin a joke or two at the same time.  Haven't seen him for a while, but know he will be missed dearly.

Thoughts and prayers to his big and still growing  family.

I only had the privilege of knowing Bob for the past 8 years. I'm thankful for the time I knew him, just wish I'd known him longer. Bob was a kind, considerate and witty person who always brightened my day when he cut my hair. I consider myself lucky to not only have had Bob as a barber, but as a friend as well.

Sorry about Bob’s passing I worked with him in his barber shop in 1971 as his apprentice I kept in touch over the years sorry to miss his funeral Ed Berger

We are sorry to hear of Bobs passing. He truly was a kind and great man. He will be missed.        Myron and Pam Olson

Many, many fond memories at the Hurla house growing up. I'm so very sorry for your loss. Bob was a great human. Much love, Erin Rodgers
