When Bob was a young boy, his father, John Leadman passed away and he stayed to help his mother Alice (Anderson). On November 15th 1963 he was united in marriage to the love of his life Deloris Brannstrom and gained a daughter. Robert was a very hard worker. He was often seen making hay or working on farm equipment. Bob was quiet in nature but known to be stubborn and a tease.
