Default Sad

That is sad news Dan. Bob was a major player in Esskay cards. He cleaned me out of my first batch without blinking an eye. We split some other Esskay lots over the years but I never bid against him because it was pointless.

My favorite story about him was that he would never go on eBay in December. Instead his wife would take his wantlist and search eBay and buy stuff for him for Christmas. I got a very nice note from them one year when she unexpectedly gave him a 54 Esskay Bobo Newsome that she picked up from me.

He was waiting to sell the farm when a 54 Esskay Heard became available. Unfortunately I think he never got one.

Rest in Peace Bob.
