I just saw the news from a Nebraska fan site I frequent.
I'm shocked as I'm sure all are. I had met Bob on several occasions and one of the older brothers in my house was dating one of his sisters.
Bob was a fantastic twirler, and at any sort of Greek event you could count that Bob was going to twirl fire. He won the 2002 All Greek Variety show as well as performing at Relay for Life and other philanthropy events.
I'm very saddened because I have several great friends in Delt, including their housemom, and I'm sure that there is much pain just down the street from my chapter house. I know there is pain all across the Greek community.
