  • Notes 
    • Bob worked for IBM after he left the service. He had been working ata radio repair shop and on the recommendation of one of his customers,Red Johnson, he was hired at IBM.
      The Watsons, old Mr. and Mrs. Thomas J. Watson, had a custom of anannual family dinner in each region; a family member or corporateofficer would attend. When Bob was stationed in No. Platte, thedinner was to be held in Lincoln. He and Evelyn were scheduled toattend, but the day before the dinner, their young son Jim developedchicken pox. Evelyn sent her regrets and Bob attended the dinneralone. He had taken their son Joe along, leaving him with the Feldmangrandparents in Giltner. When the Watsons found that Evelyn couldn'tcome, they made plans for a private dinner with Bob and Evelyn inNorth Platte! They were on a cross-country auto trip (complete withphotographer and driver). So on the trip west, Mrs. Watson rode withthe driver, and T. J. Watson Sr. drove with Bob. They picked up Joein Giltner and continued west, with a stop in Kearney for Joe to ridethe automated "bucking bronco" (there is a photo documenting this).That evening, the four adults dined in high style at a hotel in NorthPlatte; this is also documented by a glossy photo of the bunch in thelobby of the hotel.
      The year would have been about 1952-53.
