Robert proudly served his country in the United States Air Force as a flight mechanic from 1962 to 1966. He also enjoyed serving his many customers as an electrical salesman for many years.

He had a lifelong passion for classic cars, especially Chevrolet Corvettes. Robert enjoyed attending car shows and sharing his love of automobiles with fellow enthusiasts.

Above all, Robert was a devoted husband, father, and grandfather who truly loved his family. He was extremely family-oriented and cherished the time he spent with his children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.

Our families have grown up together ever since we moved in next to them in 1971. We have shared kids, grandkids and now great grands. Bob and Linda are great friends and have a great family. Our prayers are with you all. Bob will be missed, but also fondly remembered, for all the things we have shared over the years.

Very sad to hear of Bob's passing. I have many fond memories growing up across the street and spending time with the Maddison's. My thoughts and prayers to Linda, Kip, Tisha, and their entire families.
