RIP Bob

I didn't realize Bob Evans was a living, breathing, human being... but I will miss him anyway.




COLUMBUS, Ohio - Bob Evans, whose quest for quality sausage to serve the truckers who filled his 12-stool, 24-hour-a-day steakhouse in southeast Ohio led to the creation of a restaurant chain that bears his name, died Thursday, Bob Evans Farms Inc. said. He was 89.

Evans died at the Cleveland Clinic about 12:30 p.m., Evans' family told the company. Bob Evans Farms Inc. said last week that he was being treated at the hospital for pneumonia.

Evans complained that he could not get good sausage for the restaurant that he started after World War II in Gallipolis in southeast Ohio.

A late RIP to Colonel Sanders as well.
