I've been at the exact spot where Bob of Bob's Red Mill is pictured, because it's in their Company Store and Restaurant (which is wonderful). Sad to hear of his passing, but he created a good business, and then gave it to his employees, so I hope we'll continue to have all of their great products for years to come. And we intend to have breakfast at the Company Store on our way to/from Seattle, where we'll be traveling both for SMOFCon this year and Worldcon next year.

Great Obit
