The family enjoyed a life of participation and service to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Especially remembered were "Family Nights at the Lake," Father and Son outtings, Daddy-Daughter dates, and waking up to the song "Oh, What a Beautiful Morning."
Bob wrote in his history that early in his married life with Pat "I home taught LaMar and Sharon Ballard in 1965 and we became the best of friends. We hunt, fish and boat -- every activity we do together. In mixing church and fun we have run the Colorado River rapids, scuba dived in Catalina, and motor cycled in Utah.
I loved working in all my Church assignments, in Elders Quorum, MIA Pres. and a counselor to Bishop Noorda for a year and then Bishop Ballard for three more. I've enjoyed Las Vegas and the 17th Ward and I hope to do so for many more. My time in the Bishopric was choice. I hope to serve where ever I can be of use."
Subsequently, he was a counselor to Bp Stowell, then he was Bishop of the Tropicana Ward.
