He was also a very good golfer and enjoyed playing a round or two with friends.

Once settled in Georgetown, Bob and Ann became active members of the newly formed Unity Church of Georgetown. Bob served on the Board of Trustees as Treasurer for a number of years (before his stroke) and continued his service to Unity by greeting members and guests as they arrived on Sunday mornings. He was dearly loved by all.
