Rob has had a number of serious strokes and is in hospice. He is at Beacon Place, 2502 Summit Ave. Greensboro, NC 27405, room 7. He can have visitors.

Rob is still in Room 7. Visitors are still welcome.
Go to the main entrance, ring the door bell, and the main door will click (indicating it was unlocked).

Take 3 rights and Room 7 is on the right.

I took these pictures while on a swarm call and asked if Rob wanted to join me. This was the last swarm call we were on together.
Bees and all things around them were his happy place.

We were on vacation and I unfortunately never got a chance to go visit him this past week. Rob was my mentor and will be greatly missed by the entire beekeeping community! RIP

He was a great source of information and always willing to answer questions to a Newbie like me. He will be missed. Thoughts and prayers to all his loved ones.
