[AGL] my Bob Vennell

[Fontaine Maverick]

I was always fond of Bob V. Been debating whether to say this but what the hell. He was a wonderful lover.

 For me he was an enduring presence as barkeep at the Driskill Hotel. He was an elegant gentleman with a bemused mysterious expression, almost like the Mona Lisa.  RIP Bob.Best,Frances

I met Bob Vennell the same year Ed Guinn started UT. Bob had come to UT 
to get a masters in engineering but immediately realized that he had 
fallen into Austin-Daze in the 60s. The rest is herstory. Early on he 
established a weekly poker game. I always lost a card games as a 
teenager so never caught the bug. But Vennell and I were always buds 
(his term). The last time I saw Vennell was at his 75th birthday at Mike 
Kleinman's enterprise on South Lamar.
I never met his current wife/widow but one of the loves of his life will 
read my Bob Vennell.
