Legacy
Bob graduated from Deptford High School in 1970 where he was a member of the High School Color Guard and bowling team. In his younger years, Bob was an avid bowler who was on the Best Bowling League for several years. Bob enjoyed fast cars, was a huge Philadelphia sports fan, enjoyed collecting specialty coins, historical and sports memorabilia and whatever might have tickled his fancy at the time. He also loved playing cards with friends and especially playing Gin with his godson/nephew on a weekly basis. While attending family functions Bob was also known for keeping his nieces, nephews and cousins entertained with telling them funny and crazy stories of things that he and his siblings did while growing up. After graduating high school Bob was employed as Weigh Master for Fazzio's Landfill in Bellmawr, NJ., Pollack & Abrams in Philadelphia, PA., Camden Iron and Metal in Camden, NJ., and for the last 24 years at American Asphalt in Collingswood, NJ before retiring in 2021.
