Bob and his fiancé, Shannon Claire Malott cared very much for health and safety for their loved ones. They had plans of taking over a farm in fall and marrying next year.

He found great joy in providing fun and educational hands-on experiences for his three wonderful children. He liked cooking for them, spending time on the beach and in the snow, building them things, and just being silly and kicking back together.
Bob was an honest, smart, strong, caring, hardworking, supportive, problem-solving angel for everyone he knew, especially his family.?
