He proudly served in the Air Force and trained dogs. Robert worked at the Interstate Brick Company for many years and also ran a purchasing/importing office for a large tool-based company and drove a semi-truck. He was always open to learning and trying new things.
In his spare time, Robert enjoyed researching everything about space and the universe and following the activity of the James Webb telescope. He fancied himself as a jokester and a storyteller as well. He loved watching trivia-based game shows and learning new facts that he could share with family and friends.
Robert is preceded in death by his spouse, Harriett Jane Bowman-Hansen; sisters, Edyth LaVon and Doris May and brothers, Paul Eugene and Irvin Richard.
He is survived by his daughter, Vella Torres and son-in-law, Denis Torres.
