He is also lovingly remembered by his nieces and nephews: Ryan and Jacob Fisher; Collin and Sean Ladd; and Camaryn and Danielle Winter in addition to many aunts, uncles, and cousins.
A devout Catholic, Bob was the oldest of five children and a had a life-long love of learning. He earned his bachelor’s degree in computer science from the University of West Florida and later completed his master’s degree at the University of South Florida. Known for his patience and sharp mind, he was a wonderful math tutor who enjoyed helping others succeed.
Bob had a deep love for sports, especially baseball and football, and was a devoted Notre Dame fan. He traveled to many different countries but was just as happy taking a trip to any theme park. Bob also thoroughly enjoyed playing guitar, sitting down for several rounds of poker, and taking in concerts to see his favorite bands — Rush, Styx, and The Police, among many others.
