Bob Espen, Toledo, WA



Bob passed away Feb 22, 2021 from a massive stroke. He was a long time member of Cascade Woodturners and was very well-connected to the world wide community of woodturners. Bob was a good demonstrator and a great ambassador for the woodturning community. He was a very innovative woodturner. Bob served in the Navy, lived in Hawaii, then Alaska and moved to Winlock/Toledo Washington about 15 years ago. He was involved in harvesting figured woods for the music industry. He will be buried in Willamette National Cemetery. Bob was just a really nice guy and very generous to everyone. ~ Dale Larson
