Bob loved music, particularly classical and good jazz. He also loved creating new things. He built his own home, for the most part. His dear wife Carol’s favorite picture portrays Bob on a ladder with a hammer in his hand as he added a beautiful laundry room onto their home. Bob will be dearly missed by all his family and friends.
