Sorry for the families loss of Bob. I remember a Carol Alexander as a neighbor, two doors away on the 100 block of N. Franklin Street in the mid 1950s.

The world just lost a real character, and a damn good person. I met "Knuty" during my time at Kayser Heavy truck. Always grinnin', always the source of mischief. Like throwing firecrackers under the bathroom stall door when you were committed and couldn't run... pullin' your britches down when you were standing on an "elephant box" in front of a truck... Or pokin' holes in your pop can to watch it dribble down your shirt... RIP my friend. .
