Bob grew up in Canaseraga and attended Canaseraga High School. He had been employed for about 2 years as an attendant at the former Craig State Developmental Center and later served briefly as a truck driver for the Town of Burns. For 27 years, Bob was employed as a delivery bulk truck driver for Burnwell Gas in Dansville and for about 10 years worked as a sprayer for Gunlocke Corporation in Wayland, retiring about 18 years ago due to ill health.
He was a member of the Trinity Episcopal Church of Canaseraga and was a life member of the Canaseraga Fire Company & Rescue Squad. Bob was a past-president of the Fire Company and had served as Fire Chief and also served a four-year term as Ambulance Captain. It was during his four year term as Ambulance Captain that the very first defibrillator was installed --- saving many lives throughout the years.
Bob was a former member of the Dansville Moose Lodge and a
former member of the Canaseraga Rod & Gun Club. Throughout the years he enjoyed hunting and
fishing when his health allowed. His
greatest joy, however, was spending time with his family, especially his
grandchildren.
He was preceded in death by his daughter, Michele Levee who
died October 21, 2016 and also his niece, Paula Bartoo.
Bob was married on July 5, 1969 to the former Suzanne Jackman who survives.
