Bob is also survived by his beloved dogs, Bella, Sophie, and Daisy; and many loving relatives, and friends who will all miss him dearly.
Bob will be lovingly remembered for his hard work ethic, selfless attitude, and willingness to help others. He selflessly put his country before himself by enlisting in the United States Army, where he served his country proudly. He retired as a Lt. Colonel, having command of the 307th in New Kensington, and 412th HHC in Columbus, Ohio. He also lead the 281st out of Los Cruces, NM leading transportation through The Iraqi Invasion in 2003.

Bob was proud of his home, and enjoyed working outside maintaining his 7 acres. He also enjoyed watching British Based mystery movies with his wife, and playing golf. Bob was a member of The Evans City VFW, and participated in Butler VA’s support groups.
