Re: A Shipmate and Good Friend Passes

John,
I can not add a thing to what you posted, So Sad.
He had a beat up old blue Vespa he asked me to sell for him when he left Bermuda. I sold it and sent him the money.

Re: A Shipmate and Good Friend Passes

Rick -- Sorry to hear of the passing of Bobby V. I also have fond memories of our time in Arg and the many Johns runs. He will truly be missed by all that knew him. Frog

Re: A Shipmate and Good Friend Passes

I had the pleasure of Serving with Bobby in Bermuda with John Vogt, Randy Scott, Terry Clower and a whole host of other really sharp systems folks. I was at the same pinning ceremony that Randy spoke about and am not ashamed to say that his tears of joy brought a tear to my eyes as well. Bobby embodied what every chief aspires to be, at true leader and inspiration to his subordinates. He always seemed to bring out the best in what any person had to offer. And boy, would he challenge you on anything he was passionate about.
I will keep him in my prayers.

Re: A Shipmate and Good Friend Passes

I also remember John's Runs with Bobby and many good times with at the base. I was like to reconnect with him a few years ago. He will be missed.
