He was the proud father of 11 Siberian Huskies over the years. Bob was a long-time season ticket holder for the Detroit Red Wings and Lions. His favorite things to do were playing golf, watching Red Wing hockey, snowmobiling, and taking special vacations.

Bob will and is being missed by his wife, Nancy, and his husky, "Meeka". He loved to joke with whoever he met. The best is being blessed with caring family and friends. Rest in peace, Bob.
