Bob was born in Louisville, KY on 4/6/37 to Butch and Dorothy Charmoli – he graduated from Manual High school in 1954 and the University of Kentucky in 1958.

His daughter Susan was born on February 12, 1963 and Sally was born on October 10, 1966.
Bob was a devout Christian and devoted father. He loved serving his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Traveling to all parts of the country doing mission work for Johnson Ferry Baptist Church was something he was very passionate about and brought him a great sense of purpose. He wanted to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others less fortunate. He was also an avid golfer and loved playing with all of his golfing buddies every week. Last, but not least, he was a die-hard University of Kentucky fan and part of the Big Blue nation. Although he lived most of his adult life in Atlanta, a part of his heart forever remains in Kentucky. He will be deeply missed by all his family, friends, and all who knew him.
The family would like to thank Lakisha Moody and Brighton Gardens for their never-ending care and love for him during this period of his life. This facility along with Lakisha’s presence made such a huge impact on his life over the last 7 months.
