I worked with Bob in the steel industry for 20 years. He was an inspiration to me. His hard work in the steel business never stopped him from telling me about his wife, children & grandchild. His stories of adventures of traveling back and forth to California were wonderful to hear. He had his priorities and first and foremost he made it clear his first love was his "family"! I am so blessed to have had the opportunity to known & work with such a wonderful person. He will be missed.
