We introduce to you Mr. Bob Bearchell, who has been with The Salvation Army for fifty-five years.

Bob hails from the East, born in New York City, and spent 23 years in the Eastern Territory of TSA as an officer, making it to Major before moving on to employee-hood.

He now lives with his wife, Sharon, on Orcas Island. Talk about a commute. . .He has moved into his garden for the summer, taking a break from his favorite hobbies of watching the History Channel and reading.

Bob is the baby of his family, born ten minutes after his twin brother. He has four very successful children; his eldest son is a West Point Grad, the next son is a TSA camp caretaker in Boston, his daughter is on staff at NASA in D.C., and his youngest son is a pilot for American Airlines, who incidentally flew out of Boston on our country's fateful September 11th.

He loves to eat at McDonalds, and his favorite treat is ice cream. He is well loved among his co-worker family, and expresses his love for them as well.

Through his job, Bob really enjoys meeting all the new folks in the community, and hopes to work until he's 101. (Twenty-six years to go!) He also says he's bashful. Of which his family at the office knows not to be true. Cheers to you, Bob!
