A native of Attleboro, MA, he was born May 2, 1948 to the late Theodore Charles, Jr. and Marjorie Grant Hudson. He attended schools in Attleboro, MA, and graduated from the University of New Hampshire in 1970.

His vocal talents resulted in his singing in various venues: Manchester Choral Society, “The Crown’s Delight,” Newfields and Amelia Church choirs, at Amelia’s “Wednesday Night Live, ... In addition to singing, Bob’s theatrical talents led him to perform and star in numerous musicals with various NH theater groups. “Grumps”(as he is known by his grandson) enjoyed building & remodeling houses, cooking, gardening, various card and board games with family members and friends, Church activities and small group spiritual discussions… LIFE!
