My condolences to Bob's family. I first met Bob when when we formed the Friends of The Casey Jones Trail in the counties of Rock. Pipestone, Murray and Redwood.  Bob was a tireless for the cause.  We were very sorry to see the Klingles leave Southwest Mn.. 

 RIP Bob from your friends on the Casey Jones State Trail.....

There have been some very heartwarming posts on the various Facebook pages.  We appreciate all the posts.  Here are a few things said about Bob from people in Slayton, MN:  

Wendy Steffen:  I was Bob’s administrative assistant when he worked in Slayton. He never “stood still” but was always on the move to better the community. At times I couldn’t “keep up” with him, but he was always very patient, kind and full of fun. Jane was a sweetheart as well. My deepest sympathy to all of Bob’s family at this difficult time.

Kate Harmsen:  Deepest sympathies to the Klingle family! I remember fondly his advocacy for the Slayton area when he lived here!

Lynn Johnson:  Sympathy to his family. I remember Bob and my mom going head to head on a few issues and trying to solve the world problems. So sorry for your loss.

Kim Konkol: Our sympathy in the loss of Bob! I always enjoyed visiting with them! If I remember correctly—Bob was responsible for bringing Ethnic Days to Murray County!

Linda Elizabeth Wing:  My sympathy to the family. I knew Bob and Jane, and they were both assets to our community.

Karen Tommeraasen:  I thought so much of Bob & learned so much from him, at the Extension Office.

Connie Winter: They lived directly across the street from me. He was always busy and practically running always on the move. Did a lot of good things for Slayton.
