Bob was a great guy...He is missed! Fish on Bob!

I'm not Dave's favorite person and he isn't mine but that's a cheap shot. Firstly, Bob had always intended on renting the new house. I don't know what's gone down with you guys but Bob offered the place to me first and he understood I didn't have the money to float it without charging people and he was ok with it. In addition to that, there were people who took advantage of Bob's generosity and would abuse his equipment and the fees were going to go towards maintenance and the annual costs. I highly doubt Dave is making a profit or keeping Bob's widow from anything. Let's keep this civil and remember a great guy who we all loved spending time with.

You're absolutely right, there were some who took advantage of his generosity.

I agree that Bob should have charged more. I used to tell him not to forget to mention the water fee to the group.

Charging rent for the house is also fine as far as I am concerned.

My question about his wife was due to the fact that I never saw her in Baja.
I met her at his house in SD.

I don't know how much she knew about his assets.

Hope all is well with her under these circumstances.

Bob and his wife had split well before his death. Not sure of the exact timing but it was finalized before his second below the knee amputation. His half ownership of the house and his other possessions was willed to his paramour Ana.

Thanks for the information.
