Rob graduated from Johnson High School in 1958 and graduated from Augsburg College in 1962, where he was a star hockey player. His passion for hockey continued throughout his life, and he loved watching his sons and grandchildren enjoy the sport. He worked for Coca-Cola most of his career. Neighbors, friends, and family loved to stop by to get their skates sharpened and have a Coke.

He met his wife Kathleen when they were teenagers together in Luther League, and they were married on Valentine’s Day in 1962. They retired full-time to their lake home on Lake Ossawinnamakee in 2005, where family loved to visit and waterski. Kathleen’s wonderful care for Rob at home as his health declined was a true testament to their marriage.
