                        Earlier this year. He had health issues and he and his wife were at retirement age, so they did. It will be missed. Even the few times I was there I enjoyed the time spent in such a great store run by fantastic people.

                        Stanton Hobby in Chicago did the same thing ten years ago.

                        Owner retired.

                        I drove past Big Bear Hobby shop and saw that Bob's closed business! When did this happen? Did he retire? What's the story?
