Sorry to read this. Hodgdon powders have been a mainstay for handloaders for decades. Hopefully the family/company continues on.
RIP Bob Hodgdon.

Thanks for posting this.
Hodgdon provides a lot of reference info for handloaders including extensive free online loading tables. Other powder companies do as well, but just by sheer size and variety, the Hodgdon tables are pretty comprehensive. A big nod to Bob! R.I.P.

RIP Bob Hodgdon and thank you for all you and your family did for us shooters.

I had no idea Hodgdon owned so many different powder lines.
