He proudly served his country in the United States Army, where assigned duty was a jeep driver for his commanding officer. Bob was the owner of Alchem Mobile Power Wash, based in New Knoxville. He was a faithful member of First Church of New Knoxville (where he served as deacon and trustee) and American Legion Post # 444 in New Knoxville.

An avid sports fan, he was a follower of the Cincinnati Bengals and Cincinnati Reds, Anna Rockets, Minster Wildcats and, of course, New Knoxville Rangers. His favorite pastimes included vacationing in Tennessee, attending various activities of the grandchildren and having his morning coffee at Main Street Station in downtown New Knoxville. Bob adored his pet dog, "Joey" who was at his side until his passing.
