He was born in East Orange, New Jersey, May 16, 1929 and lived many years in Morristown and Brielle, New Jersey, before moving to Palm City, Florida, with his wife in 1992.

In May 1980 he formed his own company now called Shore Business Solutions in Wall Township, New Jersey. Following Bob's retirement in December, 1991, the company was run and expanded for many years by his son-in-law George Krebs. Since January, 2023, the business has been under the ownership and able guidance of Chris and Danielle Wolowitz.

Bob was very active wherever he lived and he served on the boards at the Evergreen Club, Mariner Cay, Jamestown, and Spring Brook. He was an active volunteer for the Florida Oceanographic Society and could be seen giving the stingray or game fish presentations every Wednesday.
