Mr. Bob BellJuly 26, 1943 : June 6, 2019 |
Bob Bell Obituary:Each year, Bob organized the WormSoakers fishing group which has hosted a fishing trip in Northern Wisconsin for 26 years. He served as President, CEO, CFO and official “Big Worm” of the club. The WormSoakers proceeds were donated to breast cancer research. He actively supported Coon Creek Casters, Pheasants Forever, Ducks Unlimited, Rock Valley Anglers and various outdoor and recreation groups. Bob’s connection to Rockford area social and civic groups was too extensive to catalog. Groups included the Rockford Cosmopolitan, Venetian, LLL and Lombardi Clubs.Bob was instrumental in raising funds and building the accessible fishing pier operated by the Rockford Park District. He started and continued to organize the Annual Fishing Garage Sale to support the pier, and later to support scholarships for local high school fishing club members.
