Together they scored two more goals with the birth of their children Lisa(Jaret) and Shawn(Renee).
He welcomed with open arms his step grandson Ty at a young age. Together, they spent time going to Tim Horton’s and Bob driving Ty to school and work. It was one of the highlights of his day. A few years later Taisha and Brayden added to his delight of having step grandchildren.
Bob worked at Chrysler for 35 years. He also painted cars as a hobby for many people in the area.
Bob loved playing cards, weeklong hunting trips with Shawn and fishing on lake St. Clair. Family gatherings was also a favorite time because he knew someone would be cooking up some good dishes.
Cutting firewood for the wood stove was also a priority. He was always the first in the area to have the woodstove going in early October.
