Default Bobby Black

Bobby's nephew, John King has informed me of Bobby's passing a few hours ago following a lengthy battle with cancer. Anyone who knew or raced against Bobby, his son, Danny Black, his brother-in-law, Buddy King, or any of his friends or family in the Avon/Plainfield area of Indiana will realize that the world is a lesser place without Bobby. He was a gentleman and a dedicated racer and he will be missed by everyone who knew him.

My family extends heartfelt condolences to the entire extended family and the wide array of friends of Bobby Black. It is, indeed, a sad day.

This is very sad news. Rick Winchester ask me just last night if I had heard anything about Bobby which I hadn't. We talked about how much we thought of him and hoped for the best. Bobby was truely one of the Good-Guys. R.I.P. my friend. You will be missed. My condolences to Bobby's family and many friends. Danny

Thank you all for the kind words. He was a great man and an even better dad. Words can't explain how I am feeling right now.

For you local guys, his showing will be held at Hall Baker Funeral Home in Plainfield Indiana on Tuesday, Feb. 8 from 4 pm to 8 pm and the burial will be Wednesday at 11am.

Danny, so sorry to hear of your Dad's passing. He was a real gentleman. At the track if I saw him coming my way I knew we would have a pleasant conversation.
