Bob was a man of many passions, but none greater than his love for the Cincinnati Reds. He was an avid fan of the team, following their every game with unwavering enthusiasm. Bob’s love for the Reds was contagious, and he was always eager to share his passion with anyone who would listen.  In addition to his love of baseball, Bob was also a skilled mechanic and enjoyed restoring old trucks. He could often be found in his garage, covered in grease and surrounded by tools, working on his latest project. Despite his battle with Parkinson's disease, Bob never lost his love for life or his positive attitude. He faced his illness with courage and grace, inspiring all who knew him with his determination to live life to the fullest.  Bob retired from Parker-Hannifin after many years of service.

Services will take place at a later date.
