Robert "Bob" Wayne Neutzling

The eldest of four children, Bob was born on April 4, 1937 in Mansfield, Ohio and was the son of William and Lucy (Mackey) Neutzling. Bob was a 1955 graduate of Madison High School. He married his high school sweetheart, Carol Daugherty, and they shared 59 years of marriage together. His career began as an apprentice to become a pipe-fitter with Local 42 Plumbers and Pipe Fitters. He was employed with Charles Hoffman Company, Mike Volk Company, and Standard Plumbing and Heating Company. Hard work was something Bob understood. He worked his job and farmed on the side, caring for his beef cattle, corn and hay.
