Hi Tom, Hello Jimmy, How ya doing Jerry?
It's been a month since Bob has left us. Iv'e had a few Jenny's and a long talk with Wally. Bob was the pilot for his first jump in 66. -
Bob was the pilot for my first jump in March 73.
I was scared to death. He had a soothing voice that calmed me down and told me I could do it. Got to see him in Georgia last year. Drank everything we put in front of him. A real Buffalo Bum. That's two for me this week. Rest in peace Bob Martin and my dear friend Texas Tom. -
jerry9461Bob Martin passed away on Feb 6 at age 93. He was the chief pilot for Frontier Skydivers in the Buffalo, NY area in the 60s and 70s. He taught a lot to a bunch of us kids - in the plane and around the bonfire.
