Today we learned of the passing earlier this week of 336's Bob Nelson, aka "Buffalo Grass." A long time A4FG member, Bob's caricatures of 'der Sweet Old Buzzard and the adventures of Admiral Slow Roll entertained Eagle Eye readers for years. Bob had been suffering from poor health recently, but that old spirit was as alive as ever. He will be greatly missed.
