Profile Information

Full Name including Maiden Name if applicable: Bob Canter

About Me:: I played football with Tom Farmer at Eastern Arizona J.C. I then transferred to San Fernando Valley State College (now Cal State Northridge) where I played football and wrestled, both poorly, until I was hit by a car which ended a very mediocre athletic career. I then taught history and coached football and wrestling at Cal Lutheran College in Thousand Oaks, CA, San Diego State University (football only), and many high schools in northern and southern CA and Reno, NV. I was married for 9 years and had 2 amazing boys. In January of 2011 I was hospitalized after a few seizures due to internal bleeding. It seems when I was being treated by radiation for prostate cancer, they hit my colon and after 5 years of off and on bleeding it had had enough and decided to twist itself to help stop the bleeding. My youngest son, Kevin, came out to visit me and passed away at my brothers house. I was crushed and so was my oldest boy, Tom. We were very close. I cry nearly every day. I have been in a care facility since. I am better now but could use some help from time to time to time. I understand there is a reunion coming up for a couple of our classes in Sept. or Oct. of this year, 2015. I am trying to get a hold of Don Adler but have been unsuccessful so far. If anyone can help me find Don or anyone else could help me, please give me a call at (843) 318-8370. I would greatly appreciate anything any of you could do. It would be great to talk to someone who is not a care giver for a change.

Favorite Memory from Arcadia: When many of my classmates attacked me and tore off my sweat shirt (I always wore a sweat shirt, they were very classy and colorful however), and ripped it to shreds. Many of them were girls. It was one of the few times I felt important and popular and noticed by girls..
