| July 16, 2015 Jose #12 Men's 60 89 posts | Loss of a great teammate, Robert (Bob) Dobbins It's with great sadness that there was another loss to our senior softball community. Bob Dobbins was the shortstop of The Sun City Sidewinders out of Phoenix Az.and former player with The Stahl Post and TNT squads out of Delaware and Pa. He was a top notch player and even better person. He was killed in an automobile accident returning home from a tournament in Montana. His wife Nancy was also severely injured and is in guarded condition in a hospital in Butte Montana. Please say prayers for Nancy and all of their family members. We will miss you Bobby.

Wonderful people. All of us that know them will have Nancy and their families in our thoughts. So very, very sad. Chris Wurm Tri-State Merchants 55's |

We knew Bob well from the early 90's thru his retirement and move to Phoenix. He was a true gentleman and a passionate player. We will keep Nancy and his family in our prayers during this sad time. Rest in Peace. |

I don't know the circumstances of Bob's accident, but I do know that many of us do a lot of traveling to play senior ball and there are a lot of crazies on the roads. Everyone, please be careful out there.. |
