He and Cleo never missed a game be it football or basketball or wrestling when John and Debi were playing in both high school and college.   They were always there to take anyone who needed a ride to any of the games.  
Bob also loved the Racetrack rodeos, loved helping the kids with their 4-H animals at the fair, and loved going on the Racetrack wagon train. 
Bob and Cleo retired in 1993 and spent their winters in Arizona at Sun Life Retirement Community in the city of Mesa, where he was known as ‘cowboy’.  Bob was known for his great sense of humor and always enjoyed a good game of pinochle with friends. Bob and Cleo would spend their summers in Montana. Even though Bob was retired, he always enjoyed helping farm and always stayed busy. Some summers he would help his daughter Carla and his son-in-law Wade work the bee farm in Chinook. or Leo and Cheryl Nicholes with the spuds.
