Bob spent much of his career working with Honeywell and Alliant Techsystems as a quality control specialist in their Underseas Division. A proud U.S. Navy Veteran of the Korean War, he was an active member of the American Legion in St. Bonifacius, MN, for over 60 years.

An avid outdoorsman, Bob enjoyed hunting, fishing, and spending time at the family cabin. His passions included singing, ballroom dancing, traveling, making Christmas sausage, and gardening. Above all, he was a dedicated family man, deeply devoted to his Catholic Faith, his children and grandchildren.

Bob will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved him. The family extends heartfelt gratitude to the staff and caregivers at The Waters in Plymouth, where Bob resided for the past eight years. The family is also grateful for the Park Nicollet Hospice Team who were so positive through Bob's care.
