His sales career took him to Memphis, TN, Birmingham, AL, Houston, TX, Jacksonville, FL, back to Birmingham, and a final move to Nashville, TN. When work and travel allowed, his second passion after his family was golf. Bob would play as much golf as he could squeeze into a weekend. Splitting that love of golf with his family, grilling in the backyard or playing basketball in the driveway. He could often be found in the backyard hitting golf balls for his beloved golden retriever Hunter to fetch from the woods.
In his later years he spent much of his time reading his favorite author David Baldacci or any other suspense novel. He loved spending time with his two grown children and his grandchildren, who affectionately referred to him as “Pop Pop”.
