Bobby was born June 30, 1948 in Ashland Ohio to Paul S. and Irene M. (Matthes) Johnson.
He graduated from Marion Harding High School.
Bobby worked as a pipe fitter and was a part of The Plumbers & Pipe fitters Union Local 189 in Columbus Ohio. Through his job as a pipe fitter he became a welding instructor and taught for many years. He later ran his own business as a welding inspector which kept him busy during retirement.
Bobby had a passion for life outdoors. He would not pass up the opportunity of grabbing a fishing pole and heading out to a local fishing spot. He also spent a lot of his time on his boat on Lake Erie. He also had a love for hunting, especially deer hunting. When not hunting or fishing, he loved riding his Harley and being around his friend’s sharing stories along with making new ones.
Bobby will be dearly missed by his daughter Monica Light: stepson Patrick Phillips; grandchildren: Cody, Alex, Isaac, Nicholas, and Bella; sisters: Kay, Shirley, and Annette and his brother Harry.
Bobby was met at Heaven’s gates by his parents.
