Before retirement, Bob worked as a foreman for Interlake Acme Steel. Bob was also a soldier, baseball player, dog lover, stamp collector, golfer, and fisher. His favorite team to cheer on was the Chicago White Sox, and he had quite the green thumb when it came to his rose bushes. Bob was a beloved father, grandpa, and great Papa, who will be greatly missed.
