Bob loved to golf and would remember almost every shot, and every club he used on every hole, especially when he got a hole in one, Bob had a photographic memory when it came to golf. He loved going to the theater & seeing his favorite artists from Tony Bennett to Steely Dan. Bob most definitely loved his Philadelphia Phillies baseball team, his Philadelphia Eagles gave him much to cheer and cry about, but never stopped supporting his favorite teams. Bob had a quick wit, and his retorts were classic. He made everyone who knew him laugh, a natural dry humor. Bob especially loved the many pets he had all through his life never without a dog and always a rescue. Bob had a big heart for the underdog always supporting the Humane Society and St. Jude’s Hospital for Children. Bob never had children of his own, however he was a great Stepdad, Bob will be greatly missed. He suffered for the past 5 years; however now thankful he is out of pain.
