He served in the United States Navy and was stationed on board the USS Hamner DD 718 during the Korean War. He returned home and married Janice Walters on February 12, 1956.

He was a very devoted husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather. He was quick witted, had a passion for sports and had an unbelievable memory. Bob loved his family and never missed a baseball game, recital or performance.
