wonderful sense of humor. One quick story in this regard. Bobby returned from a visit to San Angelo. He joined a group of the regulars
at the round back corner table in the Blue Bonnet Cafe, and announced that he was changing his name and from now on wanted to be called
"Concho Ernie". Some of us who were a couple of years younger than Bobby did our best to comply with his request. But a few days later, after he apparently got some negative feedback from his classmate peers, Bobby informed us that "Concho Ernie" would not accomplish what he planned, and we were instructed to drop it - which we were happy to do.
I did not have any contact with Bobby after college, and that was my
loss.
Ronald, please forward this on to Sharon Willis and maybe she will send
it on to Bobby's sister Ann.
All the best,
Howard Wolf
