I have a call in to the Lake Livingston, TX (Polk County) newspaper for more information which I expect tomorrow, but one of Bob's friends has told me that Bob suffered an apparent heart attack while stopped at a traffic light. Riding his trike was one of his favorite things to do, and isn't a bad way to go. Our deepest condolences to his friends and family.

I'll add more information tomorrow, as it becomes available.

Hey everybody.. My name is Eric Reeves, and I am Bob's son.

Thanks to you all for the thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

Dad was always a kid at heart, and loved his toys... We are all thankful that he left this world quickly doing what he loved to do.

The last 5-6 years of his life have been full of some really wonderful and memorable times with our extended family, and after going through 4 others, he finally built that Harley trike he always wanted...

Unfortunately his trike didn't fare too well. It is possible the rear-end, motor, and transmission may be salvageable. If so, I may be on my way to triking my '04 Sportster.

Thanks to you all...! It means a lot.

- Eric

 

[Papa Zook]

Eric-
Welcome! Your dad sure will be missed. He was a very active member and we all enjoyed getting to know him...we are pretty much like family here....a lot of really fine people. If you need any help with the Sporty conversion holler.

 

[Nana]

Eric, Our hearts are certainly with your family at this time. Your dad was very much a part of our forum family, and I'm so glad you have joined us too. I hope you make yourself at home here.
I sent you all an email yesterday, at your dad's email address. I hope it reaches you.

 

[EricR]

I did get the email, and owe ya a response. I should be able to find the high res shots later this week, and I will definitely be in touch. Thanks much.

- Eric
