I just read an article by Dan Locklair that Bob Hayes has passed away. I am saddened. Does anybody know anything about it and when it happened? He was such a generous guy. A while ago my family was vacationing in NC and he generously let us come by his house and showed my family his pipe shop. My son picked out a pipe of his that he had there and Bob made him a copy. Bob finished it off and sent it to us before the TAPS show this year. Unfortunately he was not able to make the show. He has been a fixture at these CORPS and TAPS and will be sorely missed.
