Bob lived in Medford, MA, not in NH?
Gotta be a story there.
Would like info about his education, career, etc. Obit sorta sketchy on personal details.

Here's Bob as a younger man... Who says tailgate kill shots aren't cool? Bob made it cool. Love the pic.

I don't post on here a great deal. I mostly stop by on my phone, find a topic of interest and read for a few minutes when I have a little time to kill. Reading on my phone has created an interesting pattern for me. I enlarge the posts and it usually cuts off the poster information on the left of the screen. More times than I can tell you I have read something particularly insightful and scrolled left to see who made the post and saw "BobinNH".
I never had the pleasure of meeting or even conversing with Bob but I can certainly say that I will miss him. This site will miss him.
RIP Bob. I hope there are deer up there and I hope you are chasing them!

DF He moved to NH for awhile trying to get away from the city but being a lawyer it drew him back in eventually. At least that is what he told me.

Damn.
My deepest condolences to Bob's family and friends.
I traded texts with him last Sunday and tried to call him a couple times since but he didn't pick up.
Bob told me he was ill shortly after he was diagnosed with cancer. He had a tough fight. I hope he's in fine game country now.
I'll miss visiting with him.
Rest easy, Bob.

I think Bob's heart was really in the west. That's what I gathered from our pm's. He said he would never move away from his family though.

By the way, in case you missed it, Jeremiah was a bullfrog.

He said back when he was younger 2 or 3 trips out west a year weren't uncommon. He was a big bull or buck maven and strived to hunt them. I loved seeing his 600 yard range time. While 600 is now considered short range by a lot of folks his rifles and gear were always ready. The old boy could press a trigger with the best of them.

I can understand family and career having ties on our free will to go do what we'd like to do. At least he got in on some good hunts somewhat west of MA. I'm glad he got to hunt KS WT's with Skane and Whelen Nut. That was great, I enjoyed the thread. Looked like all were having a great time. I guess it was his last hunt, although not sure about that.

Bummer.
Bob was a hell of a good guy. I exchanged PMs with him a couple times.
Like others, I sensed some oddness with his posts the last few weeks, but didn't think anything of it. Looking back, it should have been a red flag.
RIP Bob.

RIP Bob. Yeah, he was a getting a bit edgy compared to his usual smooth style. I'm sure he felt really bad, probably struggled to get his messages out. It's amazing how he kept posting right to the end, evidently not one to give up the fight easily. DF

Guys the photos were great.. Bob often hunted north of my place, and with friends I knew from living in Medicine Bow for a short time... I guessed he had some health issues because he canceled a couple hunts.. We hoped to get together for dinner.. Never happened much to my loss..

I was stunned when I saw the posting of Bob's passing. I had not spoken directly with him for some time & did not know he was so ill. Here are pics that I posted for Bob a few years ago with a very nice Wyoming (as I recall) elk. Bob was a great guy that I enjoyed talking to & we exchanged a few things; I will surely miss his presence here. MM
