To his delight, his two sons shared the same passion for auto racing. Many people also came to know Bob through his employment at McKinney Bedding Company. He served as Plant Manager and worked at this facility for over 40 years. Bob is survived by his wife Carol; two sons, Bobby Jr. and David; three brothers, Phillip, Roney, and Larry; a sister, Linda; and three grandchildren, Brett, Autumn, and Katie.
