Bob and his wife Bea raised their children in Littleton, CO and Phoenix, AZ. Their family life revolved around church, sports, competitive swimming, and car trips coast to coast, especially enjoying visits to family and the farm in WI. Bob played cards and golf, was an avid gardener, and enjoyed watching basketball with some WI cheese and a beer! Traveling to Hawaii as well as a sightseeing adventure to Equador to visit an exchange student were highlights in his life.
