Robert was a long-standing member of the American Radio Relay League, being a HAM Radio Operator most of his adult life. He retired after 45 years of service to AT&T. He was also a veteran of the U.S. Navy. He was a Mason and belonged to the Shriners.

He was a man with a dry sense of humor and quick wit that he shared with many. He was also a loving husband, and, having no children, chose to shower much of his attention on his three feline friends, Gabby, Smokey and Pooter. They all miss him very much.
