Bob met Sandy in Indianapolis and he knew then that he was going to marry her; and on August 28, 1976, in Westfield he got his birthday wish and he married the love of his life and they have been at each other’s side for 45 years.

  Bob was an entrepreneur at heart and Sandy was always at his side, they were a team. Bob owned his own truck and drove several miles over the years, Bob’s nickname and CB handle was the roadrunner and he displayed a picture of the roadrunner on his truck. He decided after being on the road for an extended period, he wanted to be home more so still staying with his entrepreneur spirit. Bob opened Bob Satellite and he was the first DirecTV dealer in the state, as his satellite dealership grew, he decided to add Bob’s Appliance Store. Everyone would buy their appliances from Bob, had a good heart, and would help people with price when money was tight. His love for music led him to open Bob’s DJ services. Bob could never pass up a good deal, which led them to their next adventure purchasing Shady’s Gathering Place; everyone can remember bringing their families up there to eat and everyone looked forward to Sandy’s dessert, this was a staple especially before football and basketball games; but on Friday and Saturday nights people would gather to have a good time; Bob could be found on stage doing one of his favorite things singing karaoke. he took care of the entertainment booking bands or being a DJ for the evening. Sandy oversaw the food and made homemade desserts that everyone could not wait to eat. There were a lot of great memories made at Shady’s. Bob and Ashley started and operated Sheridan Auto Sales together and he looked forward to attending car auctions always looking for a good deal.

 Bob was an exceptional athlete; he was a competitive water skier. He loved being on the water boating, water skiing or pulling his kids, grandchildren around the lake tubing

 Bob’s greatest accomplishment was his family; he never missed a game and he enjoyed being part of the Sheridan Football Chain Gang, he got a front row seat watching his sons play; he could also be found cheering his daughter Ashley on at her softball games.
