I'm sure it was transcribed somewhere in the thread, by Angelo, I think? Maybe it never made it to the media thread? I'll have a rummage through here and see if I can bump it.
 
I don't know how many old pages I've read now but I still haven't found it. Just loads of posts by me moaning about not being able to find things.

I'll keep on looking though. I've found loads of great stuff that's worth bumping, anyway.

If there is such a statement, it would be evidence. Evidence of a family fight, not of a murder.

Clearly it wasn't the 'knock down drag out' it's being portrayed because Bob had his son in law around the next day to help him get the house ready.

First, the 'family fight' has been documented in many places, by more than one family member.

Second, I've never read anything that indicates that Bob wanted, needed, or requested his SiL's presence on the day Bob was likely murdered.
 
Man, sometimes when I come to this thread I just get SO angry!!

There is no logical reason for this dear, lovely man to be missing. He should be spending this time at the side of the woman he obviously loved--even after a decades long separation--enough love he had for her that he married her within a short period of time of seeing her again. He obviously wanted to spend the rest of his life with her or he would not have taken such a step.

I cannot wait until we see justice served for Bob and his adoring wife, Fontelle.

I hope that the justice is severe and encompasses everyone who had ANY role in disappearing such a lovely soul. They did this all for the love of money. They are sick, greedy people to have done such a thing.

How dare anyone presume that THEY had the right to literally steal this man away!
 
AH made a statement to LE right away about the family fight the night before Bob disappeared. I don't know why that would be in dispute now when we have had it linked and discussed it as fact over and over again. Even the daughters have made comments about the fight the night before about how their father was the one who got angry.

And the very next day he disappears, without a trace, without a car, without using his credit cards or being seen on video anywhere. He disappeared from his own home, while his SIL was in and out working, gone by the time the CL got there at noon.

And maybe Fontelle was 14 years old when she got engaged to Bob. In those days, girls were married by 14 years of age. And after 60 years, with both of them not having a good of memories as they once did, if they got some of the details off somewhat, tha comes with it. I wouldn't be so concerned about the details of their relationship being off as much as I'd be concerned about the details of when Bob disappeared being off. JMO, IMO, MOO and all that.

Without his glasses....and where are his checkbook, wallet and keys?
 
And what did they look like? Colour of wallet, key fob?..just give us a clue, pleeaase!
 
as far as the suggestion that the marriage by Bob and Fontelle was rushed and the implication that indicates Bob was somehow duped or taken advantage of I wanted to remind folks of the following.

Bob and Fontelle are advanced in age. they have both had long marriages with others, had and raised their children. Given their advanced age, I think things would tend to be more pressing. Neither could have expected to have many years left on this earth. So their speed in parrying I can totally understand. When you only have possibly a few years left, what's to wait for? Live now, there isn't much time left for suiting yourself.

The co conservators have pointed out ad infinitem that Bob didnt have Fontelle listed as a beneficiary on any account, although there were notes that listed his intentions to do so IIRC.

Can some one share with me how in the world Mrs Harrod would benefit from the disappearance/presumed murder of Bob when Mrs Harrod wasnt listed on any accounts (allegedly)?

The family, however, would clearly benefit. Because they wouldnt have to share.

Even after almost 4 years, the person who benefited the most to date was a member of Bob's family-AH. Dollars dont lie. His debt has been wiped out based upon a "he said" that completely confuses me as to why it is even enforceable, tbh. Bob isnt here to allow for the forgiveness, and Bob isnt dead and it benefits the trust HOW that this asset is now gone? IIRC the basis of the trial to attempt to collect rent from Mrs Harrod was that the co conservators had a duty to the trust to make money.

Really? This is logical in what way?

Sigh.

Interesting enough there is a parking area for hikers only a few hundred feet from where the remains were found. Clearly an easy enough place to turn around a vehicle.

And exactly the type of turn-around place Oriah told us to look out for.
 
I suppose if we are all busy concentrating on the length of someone's hair and the exact date of an engagement some 60 years ago, we won't have to time to look at what's happening to the money now.

Or the complete lack of comment or help about the timeline from the last known person to have seen Bob on July 27th, 2009.
 
Fontelle H. had nothing to gain from Bob's disappearance. On the list of those most likely to benefit, other than living out her Golden Years with her first love, she had nothing to gain.

Follow the money. The money tells the story. AH benefitted greatly already. The conservators are benefiting.

They would have us believe that Bob would forgive a huge debt that AH owed but would expect his beloved Fontelle to pay rent to live in her marital home she shared with Bob?? Yeh, right.

Memories fade and aren't as sharp 60 years later. It happens all the time with those of advanced age. The details aren't anywhere near important as what time of day Bob disappeared from his home. Where is Bob??? What time did he disappear? Those are the questions that need to be asked, not how old was Fontelle when she and Bob first became engaged. IMO.
 
Rather behind everyone else, I think I may have arrived at what the point was, of all this continual harping back in time towards the exact age Mrs Harrod was when she became engaged.

This is going to kill me, being English, but I'm going to try, for Bob's sake.

I believe it may be intended to imply Bob had ......(brackets so I can't see what I am typing)....sexual intercourse .....) with a 14 or 15 year -old -girl. Because she was his fiance.

That was terribly embarrassing, but now I've got the words out, I'll continue.

Whoaa!!
Bob was a Baptist. Strictly brought up, I believe, according to his daughter. And she should know. In conservative, first-half century Missouri. So was Fontelle. It wasn't California in 2009. Just because you got engaged it did not mean you had ( brackets so I can't see...sex..) before marriage. There is absolutely no evidence or suggestion out there - at least from the people around at the time - that Bob did anything more physical than buy a diamond ring and put it on Fontelle's finger.

He asked her to marry him. Not have (that word) with him. He put a ring on her finger, was called up to serve for his country, and ended up marrying someone else. So did she. There wasn't any scandal attached to it. Just a broken-hearted young girl who held a torch for her sweetheart for nearly 60 years, and a young man who tried to make up for that, in his old age.

I'd like to see some solid verification, from anyone who suggests otherwise.Maybe they should ask Fontelle, seeing as she is the only one who appears to be helping in the search for Bob, and was actually present in 1950.

I want so much to help Bob, but I've no intention of objecting if this post gets deleted. I've never been so embarrassed in my entire life, writing that s** word, in public.

Only for you Bob, only for you.....
