January 19, 1938 – April 17, 2020
Bob was born January 19, 1938 in Santa Monica, passed away April 17, 2020. He grew up in Burbank, California with one brother. He was a loving father to a son and two daughters from a previous marriage. He lived many places, but mainly in Texas and California. Bob reconnected with Mardi through Classmates.com as both had grown up in Burbank, living in the same neighborhood and having gone to the church and schools during their early years.
One of Mardi’s fondest memories is having a lemonade stand, which Bob would drive by on his Cushman scooter. Mardi asked him why he never stopped to by lemonade. Bob replied, “Because you didn’t sell beer.”
They married and moved to Texas, where Bob owned a 4 acre ranch with fruit trees and vegetable gardens. Mardi mowed the huge yard with her John Deere, a birthday gift from Bob. They moved to San Clemente in 2012. Bob was an active man with many hobbies, including scuba diving, boating, hunting, skiing, crabbing, fishing, RVing, bike riding, poker, and rock tumbling. His greetings, charm, and love of living big, will be his legacy. Rest in peace, Bob!
