Bob enjoyed fishing, hunting and playing golf. He was president of Grand Isle Port Commission at the time of his passing and president and member of numerous fishing rodeos. His greatest pride and his attention were to his family. Bob spent a lifetime as a devoted husband and a loving, caring father. He especially enjoyed teaching his kids, grandkids and great grandkids how to fish on Grand Isle. Bob never met a stranger and many of his friends and business acquaintances considered him a mentor and a hero. Bob’s last position with Nalco Chemical was Vice President Executive Sales when he retired in 1988. After retirement he founded Sevico, a company specializing in Quality Training on Sales and Marketing. His passion was sharing his experiences and knowledge along with many stories, some which may have been “embellished” based on his real life experiences.
