text: I also knew Bob and yes he was beaten badly, I also knew his wife, I also use to live in that house across the street, and as I recall they had told the boys to leave and he came to her aid when he was beaten. Sure Bob had guns it was his right. He was a good man and suffered a great deal over losing his wife over a battle with cancer and had a very beautiful yard. I had no idea it was him in the paper until now. He used to give my daughter ice cream and snacks when she was little How sad that he was killed  I will miss him
