As a young man, Bob enjoyed fishing, hunting and camping with friends. He was a master craftsman restoring antique furniture, crafting stunning stain glass pieces, and maintaining an impeccable home. He loved jigsaw puzzles, reading, his dog, and working in his garden. He enjoyed annual trips to the Oregon coast with his family and afternoons spent attending football or baseball games. 

 ‍His devotion, loyalty and love to his friends and family was unparalleled. He loved nothing better than time spent with family, especially time with his beloved wife Lola. 

A celebration of Bob’s life will be held in the spring. 

‍Rest in peace dear Bob.
