Dear Bob and Mary,

Thank you for your expression of gratitude and your thoughts as you move ahead with your plans both of which cause me to again express my sincere thanks for the great food and fun times you provided me. Within the last two weeks, I had watched a TV news show featuring Ted Danson, the lead character of the once very popular TV show "Cheers", in his new life efforts as an oceanographer. The news piece caused me to think about the "Cheers" experience and Bob Bake Shop. I came to believe that there were many similarities for most of your patrons and that lead me to say to you in the final days of your business, that your up coming closing reminded me of the final show of the once very popular TV show "Cheers". Bob's Bake Shop - the food was certainly what brought us all there, but it was also the place "where everybody knew your name " for good or bad. I ate very well and had so much fun. I believe I understand the emotions that you now experience with closing of the Bake Shop to probably include some relief as well as sadness. However at the end of the day, I believe you have much to be proud of and thankful for. In your final days, your patrons made a point to stop in and I believe that to be testimonial to the "Bob's Bake Shop experience". It was a great business and business model. I will miss you both and truly the whole Bob's Bake Shop experience.. Dr. B

I'm sorry to hear that business has been bad.  However, it often takes
something like that to help when you have to make your toughest
decisions in life.  You've built great business there and as you
announce your plans you will finally hear those accolades from your
customers and everybody will be asking why, but as you say, all that
praise won't pay the bills.

I wish I had the statistics but the number of businesses that fail
within the first five years is staggering and you made it eight years.
You have done a tremendous job doing what you love to do with your
supportive wife by your side through it all.  I don't think you'll ever
know how many people are truly envious of you that you could pull that
off in the prime of your career.  Congratulations! ....
 We've been a great team together more than once and I have to
admit, although I doubt the dreams will ever come to fruition, but I
still have dreams of going back to running a small restaurant some day
and in those dreams, you are my partner.  Who knows?
