This week Rob passed away fighting pancreatic cancer.
As far as I am concerned Rob is a legend in the harvesting community, he came here for as many years as I can remember and even had some locals that went along on his harvest run.
Always had a clean well put together operation and was a very great guy to work with. My best memory of him will be when the ECM in his truck went down, I don't think he really thought I knew what I was doing because I am very fussy making every detail has been checked to make sure we were not wasting money on something that wasn't broken.
Couple days later it rained and just before it rained I had a Macdon flex Draper that had a yard sale inside of the auger. He stopped by asking to settle up and I told him I would trade him for a bit of a walk through on how to pull the adapter off of that header.
He said, I've got to run but I'll be back. Before he got back he must have sent the whole crew over my way and by the time he got back the adapter was off! I couldn't get these guys tools fast enough! I bet that thing was completely apart in under 20 min!
Very good guy to have known, he will be missed in my community!
