A couple of stories come to mind.
We were at a CC rally in AZ and I was talking to Bob telling him we had just bought a '02 Intrigue. He said great and to call the office and they would arrange for us to spend a week or so on his lot in Outdoor Resorts in Newport,OR so we get the feel of it. Then he said "what the h#$% are you standing here for talking to me for? Go buy a new coach,I need the money!" I told him we just bought ours a couple of months ago, I don't need another one. He said yeh, I know, you already own one of the best." Then he gave me a big arm around the neck.
At a CC homecoming rally, Bob was on stage answering questions about this and that. Questions ranged from why no mid entry (going to think about that) to shorter coaches for us older drivers that want quality( good question, need to look into that). When the question about no ladders on the rear of the new coaches, he said that us old farts don't need to be on the roof anyway, get over it!
Nice man, he cared about his workforce and knew all of them by first name.
