WORTH NOTING

In Rob’s younger (and wilder) days, he was a champion beer drinker – according to some, the fastest draw in the North. Don’t tell his children; he hopes they will grow up to be much more sophisticated than their dad.

Earlier in his career, Rob worked in the forest industry as an entrepreneur, faller, and silviculture supervisor.
