I had the pleasure to work with Bob when D and K drywall shared an office together, that was in 1989 when everyone had just moved to Las Vegas during the gold rush. Bob was always smiling and funny. We shared good times out on the lake, there was always about ten boats of friends together. We were constantly at the Frontier hotel enjoying beer and stories.  I remember one time we met in the parking lot and walked into the Frontier together and before we went in he stopped and took off his watch. I asked him why, and he said he was tired of being bothered by hookers who could spot a Rolex from a mile away. We had a good laugh then and always. He was a man's man. Honest and true never a dull moment, he was liked by all. Jani give me a call 406.694.9667 Doug  Oakland 

When me and Barb we're in elementary school I spent the night at Barb's house.  Bob was making hamburgers, and he asked me how many I wanted.  I was starving so I said I want two.  When they were ready and we all sat down to eat Bob told me they were Elk burgers.  The look on my face must have been priceless.  Bob laughed so hard!  He wasn't even mad when I refused to eat!



The biggest thing you taught me in life was any man can be a father, but it takes someone special to be a dad.  It is so hard saying goodbye. It never occurred to me that one day you wouldn’t be here for me to call, hug, cry to, brag to, get advise from or just hear you say I love you. That one day, I wouldn’t be able to sit on your lap or see you smile at me from across the room. It never occurred to me that one day, you would be watching over me from Heaven. I will miss you dearly. Thank you for everything you taught me and the love you gave to me every single day. Thank you for all the memories and love you gifted me. Thank you for coming into my life and choosing to raise me. Thank you for being my Dad. I love you so much. 
Love Always,
Short in the briches

I have been blessed to have him in my life for many years.
During this time we have created some great memories together. During this time, I have gotten glimpse of the man
Who raised my wife and made her who she is today.
He will be missed. 
Goodbyes are not for ever.
Goodbyes are not the end.
Simply it means we will miss you, until we meet again. Love Always!

Bob, I don’t even know where to begin to express what you mean to me.  There was an instant connection between you and Jayne and I.  You started out as my boss, then my landlord, but we quickly became friends, more like family.  We worked together for 14 years.  You were such a great mentor.  I learned SO much from you, under your leadership and guidance, I honed skills that I have relied on everyday since.  Thank you for taking a chance on me.  I loved working at Bee/Lure Painting.  There was Never a dull moment.  You have one of the biggest hearts I’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing, Just a Big Ol’ Teddy Bear.  You took pride in being a self made man, and never shied away from a challenge.  You embodied Bee-Lure’s logo, the fighting bee. You were hard working, fun loving and a prankster, watch out when you got that mischievous smile and twinkle in your eye!  You truly lived with a motto of “work hard - play hard”.   I will always cherish boat rides on the river, tailgating at nascar, Friday night work dinners at outback with you and Jayne, giving each other a hard time over football teams, oh the teasing, and of course “beer thirty” and how you Always volunteered to drink a Bud Light for me.  Thanks for the memories.  You will forever hold a special place in my heart.  Until we meet again my friend. 


I have a lot of memories with this amazing man that I am truly blessed to have him as my grandfather. I’ll share a couple memories that I will always cherish but proud to tell. When my family and I lived in Las Vegas, we would go visit grandma and grandpa every weekend! Every weekend, we would come through the door and automatically smell the delicious spam and pancakes. I was amazed at how perfect they were every time. Grandpa knew how much I’ve loved them that he would make extra for me to take home! I would forget my toys, books, markers, etc...but man oh man, I would never forget his pancakes! My favorite memory when it came to those pancakes, is when he would teach me how to make it his style. 

After breakfast, grandpa would go watch television, on his favorite recliner,  in the back of his house. In my little child mind, I would run to where grandpa is, grab a book that he keeps under his table, and jump on his lap! He would ask me to read to him while he is watching his Nascar. After we’re done reading, I would tickle him and poke his big ol’ belly button! Haha... ugh this is heartbreaking for me to write this and reminiscing all of my favorite memories. 

Anyway, I am so proud and lucky to have him in my life. I couldn’t have asked for such an amazing man to be my grandfather. He truly loved and man, everyone could feel his love. I have and always will admire his love, hardworking, teddy bear, strong, happiness, wise and sooo much more! 
I love you, Grandpa. I will see you again! 

Bob, 
You taught me how to be a man, and not just in the “macho man” sense, but in the way that really matters - with strength in heart, empathy and patience.  You believed in me even in the times when I couldn’t.  You did this selflessly and you made me whole. My heart is bursting and I miss you dearly. You are the man.

My dearest grandpa. Big Boss applesauce. My heart is broken writing to you. I have so many memories I don't know where to start. You were the first to help me take my first steps. I loved coming to stay with you on break you and grandma would take me out for steak and salad and taught me all about manners. You took me to circus circus and let me win a gigantic box of coffee cups I was the proudest little girl walking out you made me feel like I was princess of the world. Every girl needs a grandpa to make them feel special like you did. I will never forget the smell of pancakes in the morning with the family gathered around laughing and watching you take charge of a room. You were always so handsome and smart. I hope through life you always know how much I loved you. I will never go to Taco house without thinking of you. I will never forget our skeeball completions at Fun city when you came into town. You did not miss the birth of one of my children or your great grandchildren. It meant so mich to have you and grandma there. I promise to watch over grandma and help take care of her.  Our family is without one less chain link but slowly we will all meet at heavens golden gates to reunite our family chain. Always and forever my grandpa you will be. 💔

My Uncle/ dad,  you and aunt Jayne stepped in as my surrogate parents with no hesitation!  You took me under your wings and treated me like one of your own.  I am so blessed to have had you in my life.  From the time you walked me down the isle, I knew you would always be there for me.  I have so many fun and awesome memories with you,  I will cherish these for the rest of my life! I miss you so much my heart physically hurts! I can't wait for the day to get a great big bear hug from you again!! Love you 

I love you more than my life itself. When you asked me to marry you, the first thing you said to me was "Marry me and you'll never be bored." He kept his word over the years. On the spur of a moment you'd call me and say, what do you think, pack a few things and we'll take a trip to California and drive up the Pacific Coast Highway. We fished, golfed, hunted and rode motorcycles.

I was lucky to find my soulmate who helped me grow into a loving and caring person with him by my side. I have some living to do before I'm with you again. I know you'll be standing in the light waiting for me. 

Until love.

My dad 💙  How I will miss you! 
 As a  little girl I always looked up to you as my protector.   As I got older you became my Friend, and I looked up to you for advice in life.   We had so many adventures in our time together they're countless!   I look forward to the day when I get to hug you again!

 I love you Pa ❤
