Bobby and Tina Long need your help.
« on: Jul 16, 2012, 09:13:27 AM »
As some of you know, I have long held the belief that if it wasn't for Marlin and Bobby Long, we'd all have to drive Jeeps, so with that said, please check out this thread on Pirate and do what you can for Bobby and his family.

Thanks,

Doc

I know the Tin Benders and some other organizations have donated to Bobby's medical fund, and now Total Karnage has joined them. If your 4x4 club has some funds available please take this as a friendly challenge to contribute. We are a small club, and not everyone has met Bobby and Tina, nor have we all used his products, but this is a very worthy cause. Please donate.

Thanks, Doc

On the 16th of last month it was reported on Pirates that Bobby was home resting.

Today I heard from Superyota that he is back in the hospital :down:

RIP Bobby

I also taught him how to put in 5min of hard work and then spend 15min staring and admiring what you have done...

OOPs is right, Bobby is someone that will never be forgotten. 

Lot's of good memories of Bobby.  Like when he brought the axle breaking machine to the Lakebed.  It was like that bar trick with the rattlesnake in the glass jar.  If you can keep your hand on the jar when the snake strikes you get a free beer.  Bobby was twisting axles and some of them were twisting some unreal numbers, and you could see everyone kinda' flinching away from the machine expecting the whole thing to just explode.   :biggthumpup:  Good times with a good man.

We're gonna' miss you Mister.

I lived about 30 Min from him and have a friend that lives across the street. I went out to his place several times. He was really nice guy and loved nothing more then working and helping out others. He even turned a special tool for me on his lathe for free. Sorry he is gone.
If you see it, its for sale.
