He moved the business to East Grand and added Laramie’s first pizza delivery business and drive-up window. The bakery also served as a training ground for his daughters who learned from his strong work ethic at a very young age.In the mid-60s, Bob sold the bakery and went into the real estate business. In 1977, he became the manager of the Laramie Country Club, where he worked until he retired in 1989. Bob and Fran were blessed to begin many years of enjoying retirement, being “snowbirds” in Florida. In 2014, they sold the Laramie home they built and lived in for sixty years when Bob’s health prevented him from living comfortably at the 7,000-foot elevation. They began spending their summers at Dee’s home until moving back to Sheridan permanently in June of this year.Bob was known for his integrity, hard-work, managerial skills, strong business acumen and creativity. His talents included everything from creating hand-painted marzipan to wooden treasures for his grandchildren. He enjoyed sharing his passions for culinary creations, camping, golf, and investing with his children and grandchildren. He loved dancing with Fran and had a quick wit, and was also known to enjoy a good party.The family asks that in lieu of flowers, please send memorials to Craig Hospital Foundation, Attn: Assistive Technology Fund, 3425 So.
