Just thought I would post this. I went by Southwest Parts and Service yesterday and found out that Bob Ridgway is retiring. I have had the privilige of meeting him a few times and doing business with him, and I will tell you he is one of the most fairest guys you could ever meet. He would always take time to answer questions for me even if I didn't buy anything. He is truly a good man and will be missed over there. He did tell me that he plans on still working part time at BPS, probably helping in there electronic dept. I hope he can go and enjoy himself and spend some precious time with his family.

IMO one of the best and classiest guys out there.
Bob has always done me right all the way around. Thanks for your hard work and showing everyone how a man does business in an upstanding and fair way!
Not easy to find a guy like Bob.
Whether you think you can or you can't, you are probably right.

Congrats to Bob on retiring. Hes had a great run as being the DFW area and beyonds go to guy for marine electronics. Another large congrats to the new owner, Jeromy Walker. Hes an extremely capable guy with a lot of ambition. He will do whatever it takes to earn your business.

Glad to see Bob slow down a little.. he's earned a break.  Also glad to hear there will be someone taking over his business with a good service attitude.
