Bob was first and foremost a farmer. He loved working at Bradford Farms where he was able to bring his grandchildren along and give them rides on the tractors. "Papa Urban" absolutely delighted in his grandchildren. He treated them with M&Ms at every visit and spent special time building forts and watching movies, indulging in popcorn with them. He also greatly enjoyed his time working at Walmart. Bob served his country faithfully in the U.S. Navy. He was a Messianic Jew and a member of the Tree of Life Congregation in Comstock Park. Bob's faith in God was strong and he confidently gave the Lord's blessing to almost everyone he encountered.
