Bob was born on June 26, 1927 in Ironwood Michigan to parents William and Helmi (Lake) Nylund. He was a proud World War II veteran, serving in the Navy Seabees in the Pacific Theatre. He was a perpetual salesman and wrote three books in his nineties which are available on amazon.com (search for Bob Nylund). He was known as "Old Grateful Bob" for his 42 years of sobriety. He was a kind and friendly gentleman to the end. An avid golfer, he golfed 1000 holes each year into his late 80's.
