Default Furthering that David.......

David....would a go around for Bob and his family maybe help out a little more. Not trying to steal your "limelight", just throwing some ideas on the table. I'm good for a $100.00 if this gets going. Keith.....what say you? Robert

That's a generous idea, thanks very much for posting this Robert.

I'm hoping for another update from Hugh in the near future.

Good evening..just spoke with a close family friend who was at the hospital today with Ada and unfortunately Bob remains in ICU on the very seriously ill list with some complications so there is a way to go before he is out of the woods so to speak!! Rod

Default RIP Bob Moseley

Sorry to have to break the news, have just heard Bob died earlier today (I think that's when it happened) as a result of complications following his accident.

I'll update with news of the funeral arrangements, but please feel free to post if you hear first.

I'm sure you'll join with me in extending our heartfelt sympathy to Ada and family.

I never met Bob in person, but as a very active member of this community he will be sorely missed.

Please pass on my condolences to his wife Ada, his family and his friends.

RIP, Salesman Bob!

Hanno

I am so very sorry to hear of Bob's passing. I have some great memories of phone and email conversations with Bob. He also gave me memorable tour of some awesome Adelaide military vehicle collections when I called in on my way home from Corowa in 2008.

RIP mate.

Rod

Default Tribute

For those who were unable to meet Bob here is a clip from the DVD I made back in 2007 - Year of the Cycle and Staff Car at Corowa. It gives a good idea of what a personable fellow Bob was.

Also in this clip is the late, great founder of this forum, Geoff Winnington-Ball on his only visit to Australia talking about Bob...

Rest in peace mate. I'll never forget the measuring on real vehicles you did for me down there so I could get my models correct to scale. My sincere condolences to Ada and the rest of his family.
