Bob met June Buchholz at the University of Idaho and they got married on August 6, 1955 and the couple had many great years together.Bob was active in the Agricultural community. He served as a director on the Owyhee County Farm Bureau, Owyhee County Fair board, Idaho Alfalfa seed Commission and Idaho Alfalfa Seed Growers. His passion was his profession of farming. He enjoyed being outdoors on the farm, changing water, fixing fence and watching the crops grow.

His family and friends will always remember him as he would walk among the cows and they would follow him anywhere he went. Bob was buried at the Marsing/Homedale Cemetery.
