Legendary coach will be missed
Friday, January 02, 2009
AUDUBON — Quite simply, Bob Kiessling could be found anywhere a major cross country or track meet took place.
Whether it be as a coach, a meet official, an announcer, a time keeper, or a mentor, the legendary local sports figure was always around to help out area runners wherever and whenever they needed him. Sadly, Kiessling will no longer be a fixture around South Jersey track circles.
The longtime former Bishop Eustace girls' coach died suddenly Monday at age 56 in his Audubon home. The cause of death has not yet been determined.
