Condolences & Memories (2 entries)

  • I will truly miss Bob as a friend and fellow collector. I met Bob around 16 years ago through the art glass community. He would make purchases from me from time to time and would stop in usually for an entire afternoon at my home. It went far beyond a buyer/seller thing as I got to spend time with him on these outings. I was never an early riser and would show up at flea markets regularly later in the morning. Bob would already have been there and cleaned up on any good pieces. Not only that, because Bob didn't drive I'd often give him a ride home with his new treasures. My sincerest condolences to Brent, family and friends on his passing. - Posted by: Ken Huss (Friend) on: Feb 28, 2026

  • Bob was an employee of ours at Adonis Spa Inc. for over 26 years. He will truly be missed by all our staff and customers alike who he served for many many years.
