Bob was an avid Red Sox and Bruins fan. He loved his family very much and enjoyed camping in their RV with them.

He was playing miniature golf in Anaheim California with his wife and Darrin.  Darrin hit his ball and it started to roll down the hill so Bob  tried to stop it and Darrin tried to stop it at the same time with his golf club . Needless to say Darrin hit Bob with his club.
