He was born Aug. 17, 1956 in Granite City to the late Robert Martin & Glenna (Weiss) Wallace Sr.
Bob worked at the Granite City warehouses and wrote his own blog, Uncle Bob’s Treehouse.
He is survived by a sister, Dawn A. Wilkinson of Granite City and her children, Julie, Daniel and Jacob Wilkinson and their spouses and children.
He will be missed, he was one of my favorite bloggers.
The family will hold a private service at a later date.
So long Bob. Bob was a real warrior, but he fought the wrong wars. Goldwater, Reagan and all the "conservatives" that sold out America. Losing with "dignity" while being laughed at and just sitting around taking the abuse. Bob jumped on the "White Genocide" bandwagon, but he was doomed from the start by the unreasonable conclusion that the Rigged System could be changed by using the One-Sided and hostile enemies' rulebook. Can't blame him. He was a True Believer in America, even to The End. America wasn't made by propositions and voting. Hard men had enough and gunned up to have the Liberty they wanted. America was different back when Bob grew up though. Rah, rah, wave the flag, and attacking the wrong enemies. It seemed safe, but in the end, IT WAS ALL A LIE. The System is rigged. Its not what you know, but who you know. They talk about fair, but its never fair. Someone writes the rules, and if you let the enemy write them, YOU'LL NEVER WIN.
ReplyDeleteWin what, exactly, Junior? Good lord. Go back to your video games.
ReplyDeleteOl' Bob did just fine. Apparently he had a good job, enjoyed his fair share of the women, and made for friendly conversation and debate. By all accounts he had a good life - what more can you ask for?
Good on you for getting a pic, Quartermain.
I always liked Turtle. Didn't always agree with him but always liked him. RIP Turtle.

When my 4th stepfather married the 3rd stepmother, not being of their family blood so they abandoned me.
ReplyDeleteThank GOD because I ended up getting shipped from California to live with my Uncle & Aunt Pat & Sandra Cordle in Granite City & literally right next door to Bob Wallace.
That was during my 1971-1972 11th grade year at the Old Granite City High School.
Im proud to say that allowed Bob & I to become Good & Close Friends.
Between the Friends I made in Granite City & all that happened that year, that was the Best Year of my Youth =!=
That was until the negative effects from the worsening recession 1972, with so few if any jobs available in G.C. & turning 18 that spring, I was forced out on my own. Preventing me from Graduating from & at Granite City High School.
So I hitchhiked my way back to Santa Barbara to be near my two sisters in Santa Barbara Calif.
But there weren’t any jobs there eith so …. with the hopes of finding a job & missing my Friends in Granite City, I ended up hitchhiking back & forth from Granite City to Santa Barbara & back for 4 years.
A couple times during those 4 years, Bob Wallace & I hitchhiked together several times to Santa Barbara & back.
One time Bob & I ended up sharing an old two bedroom apartment in Santa Barbara, along with the other Wild & Crazy Neighbors/Renters.
It was fun to watch Bob Woo Women with His quiet Demeanor & Quest to master the Taekwon-Do style Karate.
Then there were the wild times, Remember … We were living in Santa Barbara, when we even shared a few.
Despite the fun times Bob & I had the problems & effects of the 1974-75 recession took its toll with poverty forcing each to go in different directions.
By the time I got to see & talk to Bob again, I was an Airline Pilot for American Airlines & After Bob earned his Collage Degree, Bob became a Reporter, a Writer, & Dreams of writing a book about the Human Experience Bob had & got during the time He drove a taxi in St. Louis.
About 8 or so years later I suffered a spinal cord injury when the Neurosurgeon botched the C-5&6 Discectomy.
Which deprived me of being able to do much of anything. & why I lost touch with Bob.
Wanting to see if I could find his phone number, I was blown away & truly saddened when I just Learned my Good Friend Bob Wallace had passed away.
Here’s to the Friendship
&
Good Times We Had Ξ☆Ξ
Bob · · · I Sincerely
Hope & Pray
