Friend of the Day - May He Rest In Peace

Bob Smith, owner and operator of Bob's Steakhouse and Lounge/Bob's Resort of Gettysburg, South Dakota passed away on June 08, 2005.

Because of his love of the river and hunting and fishing, he built a bait shop on the east side of the US 212 Bridge. The operation grew and is now known as Bob’s Resort.

While growing up in Gettysburg, I relished the days I could go out to the river and eat at Bob's. He had the best steak in the country, perfectly prepared and always a value. Bob was good friends with my boss, Jim Cameron, and I can't tell you how many nights I'd sit and listen to them talk about everything under the sun.

If you're passing through Gettysburg, continue on Hiway 212 for 17 miles until you get the Missouri River. Stop in and treat yourself. The food is excellent, the staff is friendly and the view is impeccable. You'll never regret it.

Thanks for memories, Bob. May you rest in peace.
