Robert was known by many as the " Silver Fox" he loved all sports especially horseracing and football. Bob and Jackie loved road trips and experienced great joy driving along the California Coastline. They also enjoyed numerous cruises with their many friends. Our Dad loved nature and talked with pure delight about the time he lived on Palomar Mountain. When Dad no longer drove himself he often times would requests for us to drive down certain streets because of the beautiful trees. May the beauty of nature be with you always Dad with Mom by your side.
Good Luck on your mission Dad!
Our Love Always
