Bob was proud to serve in the US Army in Vietnam from September 1967 to November 1968. Bob was a true adventurer at heart, always eager to try something new and embrace life to the fullest. An avid hunter who enjoyed both bow and gun hunting, he also enjoyed fishing and spending time in the great outdoors. His adventurous side led him to experiences like scuba diving and skydiving, while his love of cycling even took him across the Mackinac Bridge. He enjoyed swimming, camping, and finding new ways to explore the world around him. When Bob wasn’t outdoors, he could often be found tinkering around the house. He will be deeply missed.
