Hi Roger
We just learned that we lost our good friend, Bob
Beguelin, on 9/1-- he was 84.
His obituary is available on Google.
I called him in June and he had no serious health
problems that were life threatening at that time -- had a large vegetable
garden -- gave most of it to his neighbors and they were bringing him pies and
cakes -- had a big-screen TV and was watching all of the baseball games --
seemed very contented in the home that he and Marge and then Donna shared there
in Lawrence.
Bob grew up in Lawrence -- graduated from Kansas
University -- worked his way through school at the local Gamble Store. He went
on to manage the stores in Abilene, Dodge City, Salina and Ottawa.
Bob then moved to Nebraska and served as a zone
manager before being promoted to a position in franchise operations in
Minneapolis. When the Gamble Division closed its doors, he transferred to Our
Own to work in store development in Michigan. At age 65 he retired and moved
back to Lawrence..
We will remember him for his big smile -- sparkling
personality, positive attitude and as a great friend.

I have posted his obituary in that section of this web site.
We will truly miss Bob.
