Together, Robert and Betty started Bob’s Convenience Store on the Clovis Highway, built a vineyard north of Lubbock, and ranched land in Stanley, New Mexico. His brisket sandwiches and her breakfast burritos were legendary in the community; just another way her service to people was met through her delicious home-cooking.
