Biography

Bob's illustrious career in the entertainment industry began in the late 1970s as a talented DJ and radio show producer at CJOR in Vancouver. He spent his weekend mornings spinning country music tunes on CJJC Langley from 1977 to 1978.

As the iconic voice of Santa Claus, Bob brought joy to countless children across the years, taking calls on the popular Rafe Mair show on CKNW Vancouver during the festive season. His warm and recognizable tone became synonymous with the magic of Christmas.

In the late 1980s, Bob's expertise in promotions led him to take on the role of promotions manager at CKXY Radio Vancouver.

Bob's acting talents also shone brightly on the small screen, with numerous appearances in popular TV series produced in Hollywood North, including X-Files, Millenium, Stargate, Cold Squad, and Call of the Wild.

Sadly, Bob's life came to an abrupt end on November 7, 2001, at the tender age of 43, leaving behind a legacy that continues to inspire and entertain to this day.
