Bob grew up in Suffern, NY and was president of his senior class at Suffern High. He was active in many sports and captain of the football team. To this day Bob remains in touch with most of his high school classmates. Bob, thereafter, graduated from Franklin Marshall College with a degree in business.
Bob had a successful career in the automobile industry and was owner of a prominent Highway 50 dealership. He jokingly always called himself a “used car salesman”. Bob was an avid golfer and loved traveling, the beach and boating, as well as spending time with his family. He had a wonderful and unique sense of humor.
Bob was active in his faith and church. During his life he served the Church of the Ascension in many leadership roles: Senior Warden, Jr. Warden and chair of the 2007 Building committee, of which he was most proud. He was instrumental in connecting the church with the Ocoee Christian Service center which lead to a ten-year partnership of feeding the homeless. He was also elected to a three-year term on the Diocesan Board of the Diocese of Central Florida.
