Bob is survived by his wife, Kristen; brother James (Mary Jayne) and their children (Thomas Norris and Brian Norris); cousins, Marc Conolly (Vicki), David Conolly, Tom Conolly (Patty) and Victoria Rhoads. He is preceded in death by his parents and loving cousin, Linda Turpin.
Bob was born on March 6, 1956 in Indianapolis, Indiana to Louise and Robert Sr. He graduated from Northeast High School and later attended Andrew College in Georgia; he made many lifelong friends along the way. He married the love of his life, Kristen, in 2001. His friends and family remember him as a kind and generous man who celebrated their success as much as his own.
Bob’s sense of humor was legendary. He was accomplished at many things and what he did not know he would research to learn and master on his own. He was an avid reader and collector of knowledge, with an amazing memory. He was passionate about his home, friends and family, art and art glass, his Camaro SS convertible and the life he and Kristen built in their little slice of paradise.
A memorial service for Bob will be held Saturday, December 4, 2021 from 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM at Blount & Curry FH-Carrollwood, 3207 W Bearss Ave, Tampa, FL 33618, followed by a reception and gathering from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM. All are welcome to attend and celebrate Bob's life. The family would like to thank Lifepath Hospice and Moffitt Cancer Center for their dedication to his care.
In leui of flower the family asks that donations in Bob's memory be made to the Mid Florida Sheltie Rescue.
