He was a long-time active member of the Greater Akron Aquarium Society, which he lovingly called "The Fish Club".

Bob will be deeply missed by his devoted wife, Hope; son, Shawn (Shannon) Cisney, of Garrettsville; grandchildren, Jim and Kate; nephews, Rich Cisney and Gary Stefko; nieces Barb (Tony) King and Janis Nystrom.
