It was an enchanted childhood; growing up in a college town in a gentle agricultural valley ringed by the snowy mountains of central Washington, which led to his lifelong love of nature. He graduated from High School as Student Body President and Class Valedictorian, where he was a participant in football, track, drama, speech and student government. He attended Washington State University where he and Beverly found each other in 1949 and began their enduring romance. At WSU Bob was active in student government and was President of his class.

Those were exciting and exhausting days as he combined teaching with architectural practice. He teamed with a fellow faculty member to establish the firm of McConnell Peterson in Tempe.
