J.J. Johnson, Former VP Area
Services-Special Olympics Kansas |
"I have worked with Rob since 1991, and during this time he
has honed his skills as a public address announcer by
working all sorts of sports, community events, etc. I
call him the "Golden Throat", because not many announcers
can announce 16 hours, over two days at the Special Olympics
Kansas Summer Games, and not lose their voice. Rob not
only does that, but he has a voice that is very easy to
listen to and he has an enthusiasm for his trade that keeps
everyone in the audience involved." |

"Rob has the “IT” factor when it comes
to announcing. In my opinion, an announcer needs more than
just a good voice. The person needs a sense of timing and a
great command of words. Rob knows what to say, how to say
it, and when to say it. I have had the opportunity to attend,
or coach in thousands of basketball games around the country
and there is no one better, at what he does, than Rob. " |

Bob Homer, Former Activities
Director - Parsons, KS High School |
"Rob has been announcing high school and college athletics
for a number of years. In my 35 year career of high
school athletics, Rob is the most professional announcer I
have ever seen. His expertise in sports announcing has
enabled him to provide a quality product for all the events
he does." |

Jody Thompson, NJCAA
Wrestling Hall of Fame Wrestling Coach- |
"I am blessed by the fact that I was there in the beginning
(29 years ago)...when Rob first began his announcing career.
It did not take long for me to realize that I was in the
presence of a phenomenon. Rob's voice was clear and
crisp, and he held the attention of a large group,
effortlessly. Since those early days, Rob has added
pre-event research and organization to his package. In
addition, he had developed a knack for dealing with the
'unexpected'. In the past twenty-five years he has
become a highly energized and focused professional.
For 40 years I have attended large events, and I can say
with ease that Rob is the best announcer that I have
witnessed." |

Sam Blubaugh, President -
LCC Booster Club |
"I have listened to Rob over the past 29 years that I have
lived in Parsons, and can say that he is simply the best.
We have teams from other communities comment on Rob, they
want to know how they can hire him. Rob is a
professional, keeps the announcing completely unbiased and
his music and knowledge of every event makes it a step above
the rest when he is announcing. Rob's versatility is
what I admire most about him the most, he can announce a
football game, parade, beauty contest or whatever the event
may be with the same amount of enthusiasm, knowledge, and
professionalism. Rob should be everyone's first
choice, as he is the best." |

Rod Landrum, Board Member,-Parsons State
Hospital Endowment Association |
"I have known Rob for a number of years and have had the
opportunity to watch and listen to him announce a number of
events and I have always been extremely impressed with his
professionalism. In particular, I have been a board
member of the Parsons State Hospital Endowment Assn. for a
number of years and one of the events we sponsor is the Gary
J. Daniels Sunbelt Rodeo. Rob has announced our rodeo
for the past 16 years and has helped to make the rodeo a
truly professional production due to his dedication and hard
work. I can honestly say that Rob is one of the best
announcers I have seen and he has been an asset to the
Parsons community and surrounding area. You can't go
wrong with having Rob as your announcer...there are good
announcers, great announcers and I would classify Rob as an
'exceptional' announcer! " |

Aaron Keal, Athletic
Director - LCC |
"For the past number of years, Labette Community College has
used Rob for all of our announcing needs.
The Cardinals have nothing but good things to say about
him. He is very energetic and has a
knack for pumping up the crowd. From our experience,
Rob is a very professional, eloquent
speaker, with superior announcing skills. " |
