T h o s e who loved him here still do, and Robert Coyle t h o s e upstairs who loved him have him now. Born March 27, 1944, in Newburyport Mass., Bob was a carpenter and electrician by trade, until forming his own weed abatement business in Southern California. After retiring to the Oregon coast to become a caregiver for his elderly parents, he found great joy in his fishing boat and his rescued St. Bernard, Pup. Now we know he’s happy riding the fastest dirt bike, raft- ing the highest wave, spelunk- ing the darkest cave, walking the highest girder, diving the deepest ocean ravine, setting up the most complex computer ever and enjoying every minute of his new life. We know this for certain because that’s the way Bob always handled things here on City seeks to fill board, commission vacancies Help contribute to Florence by serving on a City committee.
