This year the
Teams Committee adds a few more hearts and hands to the group.
Our members are:
- Ann Cramer
- Bob Fontichiaro (better known as "The Answer Man")
- Vicky Galper
- Deb Pank
Each month will
feature one member so you can get to know them all. Think of
this section as a virtual "coffee hour."
This month's
spotlight: Bob Fontichiaro
Bob Fonticharo
lives in Troy, Michigan, with his wife, Chris. Having just
celebrated their 16th anniversary, Bob and Chris are
blessed with a blended family of four surviving adult children
- three live in Michigan and one resides in sunny California.
The family also includes five grandchildren (2 boys and 3
girls) with two living locally in Farmington Hills and three
in California.
Bob is a
retired educator, with a career spanning from teacher to
elementary school principal to district administrator.
Subsequent to retirement, Bob worked as an independent
educational consultant for several years.
Now Bob's
primary interests focus around home-related endeavors, having
just completed a year-long project finishing his
home's lower level - just in time for the holidays! He and
Chris enjoy traveling, such as their recent trip to Italy in
August to visit family, eating out (he loves bar burgers);
and finding warm weather when Michigan is cold.
Bob became
involved with the Komen Detroit Race for the Cure® as a result
of Chris and her personal fight with breast cancer,
as well as her commitment and volunteer work with the Race.
"I have served
in many roles, including setup/take down for numerous
events, Race Day logistics, Early Bird Packup, New Captain
Telephone Orientation, "Race Answer Man", and various other
tasks where needed. But I'm probably best known for
my dishwashing skills at the annual Platinum Recognition
Dinner."
Bob is truly a
one-of-a-kind asset on the Teams
Committee! |
