Robert traveled most of the Midwest during his career in the soft drink industry and retired from Liberty Glass Company out of Sapulpa, Okla. For a couple of weeks in the summer, when his employment took him out of the state, he sometimes was accompanied by one or two of his twin sons where they learned to meet people and get an education in the business world.
