He has been a member of the Upper Salford Volunteer Fire Company for 28 years. He has faithfully served as a firefighter, engineer, and trustee for the company. In addition, he has also spent time volunteering with Towamencin Fire Company for many years. Bob loved nature and spending much of his time outdoors. He enjoyed cooking, gardening, spending time with his dogs, and watching sunsets. Bob was fondly known as "Pappy" to his two grandchildren and loved teaching them to explore and discover.

He is also survived by his former spouse, Dianne Kulp. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his twin sisters, Christine Ann Kulp and Kathleen Louise Stoltzfus, and a brother, David Kulp.
