He was brought up in the ethnic based Church of the period, Baptized, making his First Communion and Confirmation on the prescribed schedule.
Bob attended parochial school taught by Nuns; a boys high school taught by Christian Brothers; LeMoyne College and Fordham Graduate School (MFA), both run by Jesuits.
Bob was a Navy Officer on active duty for three years and retired as a LCDR at 34.
As a civilian, Bob spent over six years at GE in manufacturing management, while completing his MBA at Syracuse University. Moving on to Xerox in 1964, he held management positions in manufacturing, engineering, R & D, program management and corporate planning staff.
In 1978, Bob left Xerox and formed his own sports marketing agency, which he operated for twenty-five years, producing professional golf events.
Concurrent with these experiences, Bob evolved from being Compliant, to Curious and now is a practicing Critical Catholic.
Bob and former LeMoyne classmate, Mona McDermott have been married since 1954 and live in Pittsford, NY. They have three children, nine grandchildren and with that progression, look forward to twenty-seven great-grandchildren. This is Bob’s first book.view less
