I received a phone call from Bob Dyson last week where he informed me that he was ill and required surgery later this week.
I believe the surgery to be quite serious, yet Bob maintains a very positive outlook which is always helpful in situations such as his.
He is very fortunate that his good wife Liz is extremely supportive and doing everything possible to prepare him for surgery, including preparing special food that he requires prior to his surgery.
Bob was always one of these Prison Officers that remained level headed and gave sound advice. He enjoyed a joke and a bit of fun, yet when it came to his duties, he took them seriously and carried them out to his utmost ability. He was senior to me and I always enjoyed working under his supervision. Bob retired in 1980 as an Assistant Superintendent.
Bob, like all Prison Officers, dealt with his share of extremely hardened, dangerous and ruthless criminals. One such criminal was Lionel Roy Barlow. His crimes were beyond belief. You can read about Barlow and other exploits by Bob Dyson in a number of my eBooks, including my latest eBook, Australia’s Best Prison Stories available on Amazon.
Bob phones me every two or three weeks and we enjoy chatting together about the old, as well as the current, Prison stories.
I wish Bob a successful outcome to his surgery and a speedy recovery.
