    I just received a phone call from Gary Glasgow (Night Prowlers) and he told me that Bob Wheeler had an accident over the weekend and was not able to recover.

    Bob worked in the Night Prowlers booth with Gary, and answer'd the phone calls took our orders.

    Please take this time to say a prayer for Bob's family and his friends to help them get through this tuff time.

    The funneral will be Wednesday in Neveda, Mo. I don't know times or the name of the funneral home, I'll post more information when I receive it........

    Sad to hear.

    I knew a Bob Wheeler when I worked at a bike shop around fifteen years ago. He was from Carthage but Navada isn't that big of a move so it could be the same Bob Wheeler? Dude rode an early BMW and always had crazy stories to tell.

    Anyone know how long Bob had been with Night Prowler?

    Mick,

    Man I am sorry to hear that. I know I've visited with him both on the phone and in person at shows. Always helpful, as is everyone at Night Prowlers.

    My thoughts and prayers are with both his family and his extended family at the shop.

    Any memorials to contribute to in his name?
     
  14. love and sympathy to his family and friends...
    with love & respect,
    nic

    I don't know, I'll try to find out, and I'll pass on the information. (Memorials, Insurance or ??????) I'll find out to see if they have a need besides our prayers..........

    Sorry to here about Bob. I often visited with him and he had been here to the shop a couple of times in the past. I will pass the word locally.
     
  24. What a bummer. We met Bob a couple of times the last one being in Lancaster after Skipstich's HAMB BBQ, went out to dinner with Gary and Bob. Bob was more of a traveling buddy to Gary than an employee. He knew the business well and was able to answer any questions you had about getting parts for custom cars. I never met his "real" family, but his "extended" family like Gary and Mollie have realy got to be hurting over this sudden loss.

    R.I.P. Bob

    I hasve been to the shop, bought from Bob, and have visited with him at shows when he was not working and when he was,

    Always the same, pleasant. Bob was a Kustom guy in spirit and in ownership.

    He will be missed.

    My condolences to family and friends. If someone could project a smile over the phone, he did. He always helped me with my order, even when I had no clear idea what exactly I wanted! May he rest in peace.

    This is Bob Wheeler's wife, Sharon. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers for me and my son, Jamie, during this time of need. It means so much to us that you took the time to remember and pray for Bob.

    Happy Cruisin'

  28. MAN, Crap! Ditto on the bad news, its been carnage around our parts this past week too.

    God Bless Bob and say a prayer for his loved ones.

    Does Myers know??? I assume so, since he does so much for the Prowler boys.
