Bob was a man with a passion for the outdoors. He enjoyed watching and feeding his many animal friends daily. He looked forward to cutting the grass with his zero turn lawnmower and making a stop at the top of his yard to enjoy the cool breeze in the shade of a tree. Bob was a dedicated employee for Rome Electric and Aerotech for many years and was also a proud veteran of the United States Air Force. He was a dad, a friend and a mentor. He will be deeply missed by the people who knew and loved him. Especially his family.
