A beloved 88-year-old crossing guard from Kansas City, Kansas, saved two children from the path of a speeding car but tragically paid with his own life.
Bob Nill had been employed as a crossing guard for Christ the King Catholic School since 2015, earning the affectionate nickname “Mr. Bob.” However, on Feb. 18, 2020, Nill was hit and killed by a speeding black sedan while saving the lives of two young boys, aged 8 and 11, who were otherwise in its path.
