Passing of Robert "Bob" Streicher, Machinist
By Bill Maguire

I would gladly spend hours talking to Bob on the phone.  He was a great
guy, a very talented  and eccentric guy.  He had a cow and would let
her into his bedroom.  He really loved animals.  I once drove to his
home in Pennsylvania for a visit.

Bob made many of the player rebuilding tools that I sold.  I relied on
Bob, as I did on Durrell Armstrong.  Fortunately, people like John
Tuttle are there to pick up the pieces and carry on.
