Bob loved his sports. His favourite teams were the Toronto Blue Jays, Chicago Blackhawks, the Dallas Cowboys and the Hamilton Tiger Cats. He enjoyed winters in Florida and would go to a lot of grapefruit league ball games for Toronto and Philadelphia. Bob played hockey and was a goalie. He started out on the pond using Sears Catalogs for pads and played up to Junior 'B' and then later in life playing recreationally seniors hockey with the Old-Timers and travelled in the United States and abroad to Switzerland. He even got a few MVP's under his belt for which he was super proud.
