Very sad news- passing of a fellow collector

[tbob]

I just learned last night of the death of Robert "Bob" Craik who was known to many on this board. Bob was both a collector and a dealer but had a love of cards and will be very missed. I am not sure exactly when Bob died but it has been during the last year. The occasions I had to speak with Bob on the phone and converse by email, he was always pleasant and a very friendly guy. I never got to meet him in person unfortunately. He will be missed. Sympathies go out to his family. RIP Bob.

That is sad news.

I've only had a few email exchanges with him - - but he was a very nice guy.

RIP.

I didn't know Bob well but I know we did some business over the years. My condolences to his family.

Bought several cards from Bob. Always a pleasant and trouble free deal. My thoughts to his family.

This is a shock! Several of my 1911 Zeenuts came from Bob. Sad news indeed. Condolences to Rose and the kids.

Seemed like a really nice guy. he asked me once about a Marx Brothers card I had one cause apparently one he had got stolen. I t was the same card but he was very nice about asking anyways. Never found out what actually happened.
