Bob Loveless passed away today

It's 7pm, glass in hand, I raise my glass - Toast - to RW Loveless - A guy who may be gone, but surely no one here will ever forget the legend of RWL.

Bob Betzner
 
A true loss for the custom knife community. RIP Mr. Loveless. I never was able to meet the man but have always admired his work and his spirit.
 
Hard to express in words the sentiments for when one of the founding fathers in the custom knife community passes on. He's left quite a legacy and I'm honored to have one of his creations.
 
On behalf of Yoshiko Loveless, Bob's wife, our family would like to thank each and every one of you for your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. We are all very sadden by his passing. He will be greatly missed not only by his family but his friends and collegues as well. We are all very very proud of him and his accomplishments and so greatful that each and everyone of you have chosen to share your thoughts with us about Bob. It brings us great comfort to know that he had so many wonderful friends and collegues who deeply cared about him. Thank you again for caring...
