The beautiful sunny day and the optimistic cattle industry was especially fitting as the 9 th annual bull sale was dedicated to the memory of Bob Digby, who passed away suddenly at Pyott’s West Campground on Lake of the Prairies, August 3, 2011. Bob was an enthusiastic Charolais breeder, respected cattleman and friend to us all. He is sadly missed.
