Bob or “Baily” as he was affectionately known, grew up in Kennett Square. He was a 1966 graduate of Kennett High School where he played soccer. Bob attended Goldey Beacom College, graduating with a degree in business. Bob was a well-known bartender at the Anvil Inn and other popular night spots in and around Kennett Square.
He married the love of his life Debbie and became a vice president in the banking industry where he remained for 25 plus years. After the untimely early passing of his wife Debbie, he focused on raising his two daughters and devoting his life to them.
Baily always had a smile on his face and a joke to tell. He was a lifelong Philadelphia sports enthusiast. His favorite spot was sitting on his beach chair at the Outer Banks.
