Some words about Bob are well overdue. He's a grad of Bloomsburg and taught English at Millersburg High School for 30 years. He directed the student musicals and appeared in productions with the Tri-Valley Players and Harrisburg Community Theater and others. One summer at Williamstown, Ma., he even appeared on stage with Tallulah Bankhead! ("I only had one line" in Separate Tables.) He spent a year's sabbatical in Savannah, Ga., to chronicle Sherman's March to the Sea ("I did it!") but mostly he was sipping mint juleps with the Grand Ladies of the city who clasped him to their bosoms. He is a meticulous housekeeper, gardener and gourmet cook who loves public sales, his late father and brother Dave being auctioneers. He has a flair for gift wrapping and prefers that to "selling" . . . and he is especially adept at slipping godson JJ forbidden treats when no one is looking, but their shared grin always gives them away . . .
