While Bob was a Steubenville transplant, he loved the “Ville” as if he were born and raised there. He enjoyed many days sitting on the bench talking to his friends and planning their fishing trips. He loved hunting and fishing always talking about how the walleye were running at Lake Erie and he had no interest in catch and throw; he wanted the fish, caught, fillet, frozen, and fried.

Anyone that knew Bob knew that he loved his family, Mocha and the Cleveland Browns. His love for the Cleveland Browns never wavered even in a city full of Steelers fans. He never gave up on the Browns and let everyone that he had been since Jim Brown played and was so proud that they FINALLY had a winning season last year.
