Love you Torgy! thanks for being my kids other Dad. You taught them things I probably “wouldn’t” have?? Easter at your place was always fun,Big Fork visits are such a good memory, arranging Ed and my wedding in Vegas, so much fun and laughing, shopping with me to get the perfect outfit for my kids weddings, helping choose and cut the perfect Christmas Tree in the snow in Michigan, being a good man, loving us!!

Bob came to work for my grandpa right after high school going custom combining. He told me he figured out soon that the real action wasn’t driving combine but riding around in the pickup with my grandpa learning how to do deals. I myself got to help Torgy, as we called him, doing mineral leasing in Colorado and also ND. He taught me a lot about minerals and many other things.
He was such a good talker and excellent at making new friends. We’d walk in an eatery and it wasn’t uncommon for someone else to join us who Torgy befriended while we waited for a table.

He had so many stories from the old days of Williston. I wish I would write a book about it. He will be missed by my family.

Bob was a regular at my dad's office in the days of Taurus Corporation and other pursuits. Always good natured. Sad for his passing. RIP, Bob!
