Bob was a 1974 graduate of Somerset High School. He drove tractor trailer for 30+ years before his health battles began in 2004. He enjoyed stock car racing at Windber Speedway (#94), hunting, fishing and later feeding his beloved "outside pets". He was a life member of the Listie Volunteer Fire Company, Post 257 Sons of the American Legion in Stoystown and supported in prayer by Grace United Methodist Church in Somerset. In 2013 Bobby was given a second chance for life when he received a double lung transplant from a selfless donor he never met. Please consider being an organ donor if you are not already. The family will be forever thankful to the amazing staff of doctors & nurses at UPMC. Due to current health concerns there will be no viewing or funeral service at this time. A celebration of Bobby's life will be held at a later date.
