Bob was known to many people by his knickname "Bobcat". His personalized license plate also reads "BOBCAT". For many years Bob Thompson lived on Thompson Street.
Bob was the Postmater in the City of Montrose until he retired from the postal service. At the time he became Postmaster he was the youngest person to hold that position in the country.
