Bob graduated from Anderson High School in 1949, earned a business degree from Indiana University in 1953, and a degree in Civil Engineering from Purdue University in 1959. He honorably served in the United States Air Force. He briefly worked for Chicago Bridge & Iron Company and then began a successful career with Geupel DeMars, Inc. in 1964. Bob retired as their executive vice president in 1995. He was a member of Holy Spirit at Geist Catholic Church. An avid golfer, he also enjoyed woodworking, sailing and boating on Lake Wawasee, and was always thinking about the next thing to build.
