Robert Olin Bond, 84, passed away on July 20, 2015.

Bob was born on April 14, 1931 and grew up on a farm in Carroll County. He was a graduate of Hampstead High School, the University of Maryland and earned a Master's degree from George Washington University in DC.  Most of his working life was spent as an engineer at the Undersea Division of Westinghouse near Annapolis.

Bob had many interests, hobbies and collections, including a large collection of historical photographic memorabilia.  He was his family's genealogist, tracing one branch of his family back to the 1300's in England.  He participated in the activities of historical and genealogical societies in four counties – Baltimore, Carroll, Harford and Anne Arundel. Bob also held several positions in the Chesapeake Antiquarian Photographic Society.  Whistling conventions, square dancing, reading and computer technology were also among his interests.  He sang in the church choir and was a member of the Severna Park United Methodist Choir for 37 years.

Bob is survived by his wife of 57 years, Dorothy Krug Bond, his daughter Nancy Stetson and her husband Rick Stetson of New Jersey, two grandsons Ricky Stetson of New Jersey and Zachary Stetson of Alaska. His son Christopher Lloyd Bond died suddenly in January of this year.
