Of Smiles and Tears

In his collection of poetry and prose , Bob has combined his love of nature, the ocean, lakes, and mountains with his desire to express our inner feelings, our daily life's journey. "Of Smiles and Tears" was then created.

Bob was born in Wilmington, Delaware. In his teen years, he became fascinated reading English literature. While working as a medic in the Air Force working in a hospital, he learned compassion for his fellow man. After majoring in English in college, he found his future career in managing banks, growing up on the lake, spending his summer days by the ocean in Atlantic City. Bob developed strong emotions about the sea. "Of Smiles & Tears" is a book about those emotions, happy and sad, that we all have stored safely away in our hearts.
