Good pic. Hard to believe that pic was 5 years ago.


Looking for anything from Hoosier Pete, Platolene 500 and Red Bird.

Glad I got visit with him one last time at the Columbus show. That was really nice of Phil to make it happen. Best wishes to all of Robert's family and friends. He will be missed!

It was a great pleasure visiting with Robert on our way to CTO show in Columbus. I always enjoyed sitting in his garage and looking at all of his globes and the rest of his collection. If Robert saw in my area that there was an auction that had a globe he didn't have, he would call and ask if I would bid on it for him. I was always happy to help him out.
This year at CTO in Columbus, Phil pushed Robert around in a wheelchair, and as the three of us were walking and talking gas and oil I thought to myself, WOW, what a lucky guy Phil is to have a friendship like they had. It is "unbelievable ". Phil, you are a very special person. We will keep Robert's family in our thoughts and prayers.
He will be greatly missed.

Phil and Robert's family I'm very sorry for your loss. Robert was a good man in this hobby and I will always remember his kindness and willingness to help me and others out. I got stung in a sale of a repop auction item many years ago that Robert witnessed. He was more than willing to back me up in my efforts to get my money back which I did. Thank you Robert! R.I.P.
Greg
