The Hitching Post

Davearama:

Thanks for the post on Bobby…yes, he was a great guy…married his Miami sweetheart Cindy Fehr, a girl from
Cincinnati.(her brother was a Delt as well). After college, they resided in Mt. Lookout and raised three beautiful and accomplished daughters.

I have seen Bob a few times over the years, including a NC hiking trip with a bunch of college buddies about 10 years ago now , and also a couple of college football games.

His sudden death of a heart attack at age 60 was quite a shock to all…I was at his funeral in Cincinnati at their large Catholic Church and it was overflowing that day…clearly he meant a lot to his church family, and his brave daughters all spoke so lovingly of him at the service…

Thanks again for mentioning it.

This kind of respect is what makes me proud to be a part (albeit a tiny one) of this grand history. I don’t know the man who passed, but I honestly bet we’d have been friends. Odd to say about a stranger but our DNA is likely closer than strangers.

Great thread- lets establish on this site by a vote on an annual basis a " Hitching Post " award in football ( maybe. all sports) to be given to the best player for the season who comes from a high school closest to Oxford ( or closest to Darrtown )- maybe even some NIL money included!

Tuesday night is Taco Tuesday. Great if you can get there early, then hit a Miami basketball conference matchup. We sometimes hit the Post before Saturday afternoon hoops games. .
