Also, when the restaurant the chapter had previously met at for 20 years closed, he scouted out new locations for each meeting and invited speakers including local politicians, TV celebrities, and others to talk about their interesting professions and jobs. He also worked with local collegiate chapters to hold joint events. Bob retired at age 56, after 34 years in state government service, allowing him to invest time and money for his true passion - photography.
