Bob proudly served in the United States Air Force and remained devoted to the things he loved most. He was a lifelong fan of the Brooklyn Dodgers, and cheered faithfully for the New York Rangers. Bowling was a passion throughout his life, and he spent many years in bowling leagues. His favorite meal was Chicken Parm and he had a plan to try it in every restaurant that had it on the menu. He also loved Chinese food and Corned Beef and Pastrami sandwiches with a passion. He loved dogs and they loved him, especially his faithful dog Gizmo. Bob was a very happy guy who made friends easily. He always had a smile on his face. He had many health issues in his final years, but he always kept a positive attitude. He will be deeply missed.
