Bobby has worked a few different jobs over the years ranging from farming to concrete work to helping set up products at vendor events.
Bobby had a great love for music and enjoyed following a few different local bands. He was a collector of all things "John Deere". He loved showing off his lawnmowers at the annual Thresherman's Show. He could usually be found occupied with his toy train sets or caring for his beloved chickens.
Bobby never met a stanger. He had a huge selfless heart. He loved to stop by just to smile and say "hi" and offer conversation or just to compliment someone to make their day a little better.
