    Bob was an old time Licensed Master Plumber from Valley Stream Long Island 🏝.   Solo Plumbing and heating contractor. Back then, it was very common for local  plumbers to help eachother out on a boiler or a larger job.  This was the good ol days before Workers' Comp destroyed small Businesses.  Bob came in to the business in the Mid 1960s when they were actively installing asbestos and mixing it up for the fittings.  Bobby was a real straight shooter, real quick on his feet and did not suffer fools gladly.  He caught on right away when someone was running him.  He had a trademark whistle and a look at the other people in the room like: " Can you  believe she just asked me that????"  Bob was also on the Nassau County Board of Plumbibg Examiners.  I'm going to miss him.  Mad Dog 🐕
