As a young man, Bob met the love of his life, Patricia Marie Balderson and it didn't take long before he knew that she was the one. They married on July 28, 1962 and spent 58 years in marital bliss.

He returned home, began working and supported his family as a plumber. Bob was a hardworking man with a heart of gold and will be remember by his three (3) beautiful daughters, Tracy, Angela, and Sherry.

He was extremely proud of all of his grandchildren and took great pleasure in his great grandchildren. Bob's legacy will be of hard work, kindness and laughter. His memory will remain in the hearts of his loved ones.
