RIP Bob Thibodeau aka @cranbiz

[amcjeepman]

@cranbiz passed away unexpectedly on Thursday January 30th.
Bob was the current Commander of the Carolina Trail Blazers and an active member here and in his local community.
Unfortunately, at the time of his passing he had been out of work and had no insurance, and this has left his family under a financial strain.
The Trail Blazers are going to provide some financial support and if you are able, we would appreciate any donation to this effort.

Support for Bob Thibodeau's wife and Service information

Many of you know Bob had been out of work for a while and he had no insurance when he passed away. Most of their savings had been used during this time and they could use some assistance. We will discuss what the CTB can do as a Club at the next ride but; We are also going to "Pass the Hat" at...

I met him at the meet and greet when he got tagged by the mini bike right after his knee surgery. Cool guy to take a hit like that and just ask for whiskey so he could keep going.

RIP Bob. You're cool as shit to me and thank you for those memories.

From that point on his "essential oil" was known at his "Honey" (that's funny because Brittany ran over and asked if Bob wanted her to put some essential oil on his back to help with the pain, and he said the only essential oil he needed was his honey whiskey )

Bob was a riot. It took me a while to understand him.....but then after you got use to his accent, you could determine what he was saying

He could dish it, as well as take it better than just about anyone I knew.

That's right. I forgot about the essential oil part

Only met him a couple times at the URE G2G's, but always enjoyed the conversations with him in person and online. Seemed like a wealth of knowledge. Rest in peace sir.
