He was a graduate of Canon-McMillan Senior High School Class of 1988 and earned a bachelor's degree while in Virginia.

He was a board member of the Beadling Sports Club and was happy to be with his family, friends and support group, especially the kids who just loved "Uncle Bob".
On December 10, 2022, he married his loving companion of 12 years, Stacey A. Altman, who survives.
Also left behind to cherish his memory are his children, Erin Altman of Pittsburgh, Emily, Alexis, Robert, Olivia and Gia Byers, all of Fredericksburg, Va.; his brother, Richard Byers and wife Kim of Enterprise, Ala.; his sister, Barbara Gooch and husband James of Claysville; and several nieces and nephews, aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.
