Mr. Carlson worked his entire career with the City of Worcester Department of Public Works retiring from the Water Department after 40 years of service. Bob would never miss an opportunity to go the beach, especially Hampton beach with his family for day trips and vacations.

To say that Bob loved life would be an understatement.
