For the Family: Your Father, Grandfather had a remarkable life. He did what he wanted to do, when he wanted to do it and how he wanted to do it. Can there be any better way! His proverbial glass was always half full. He was a positive individual and seemed to always have a story or joke ready for the occasion. He liked Life and Enjoyed his. For his Friends: In high school(BCC) Bob was nicknamed 'Squirrel' by his fraternity brothers during our juvenile delinquent years. He added the humor and zest to our everyday routine. He was not a scholar but had more horse sense then most. He was a joy to be around. His life afterward was one of finding himself and thriving. He did so with success. Girls, golf, selling, taking life as it came all made up his easy going nature. God blessed Bob and is his mentor for eternity




























































To Bob's Family: Your Father, Grandfather lived a marvelous life. He knew what he wanted, did it and mainly on his own terms. Can life be any finer than that! For his friends: Old Days:Bob was named "squirrel" in our high school fraternity in our juvenile delinquency
