He graduated from Horace Mann in 1955. Bob married the love of his life Phyllis Fedorchak on February 17, 1961. They celebrated 41 years of marriage before her passing in 2002. During her extended illness, there was never a more loving and devoted husband.

Bob was very active in his sons’ lives coaching at east Glenn Park Little League. For many years they enjoyed playing softball at Hillman Park.

Bob was an accomplished man, having worked in sales, distribution, and for the railroad.He retired with 25 years of service with Humiston-Keeling/Cardinal. Retirement brought Bob lots of free time to enjoy the things he loved, golf, the White Sox, The casino boats, his annual trip to Las Vegas with David and Mary, doing puzzles and meeting up with friends at Cressmoor or the VFW.

Also surviving are grandchildren Brittany, Markie, Ian, Calynn and Lainey Drobac; one great granddaughter Cali; sister Mary Lou (late Sam) Suitca; special aunt Sophie Rotkvich; numerous nieces, nephews and cousins and life long friends.
