He was fascinated by architecture, particularly of his adopted city Chicago, and he spoke to groups and wrote a blog about Chicago's architectural landmarks. He and his wife raised many Gordon Setters who were frequent posers for his camera. Bob had a phenomenal sense of humor. He earned an MBA in marketing from the J.L.

Bob Segal passed away on April 8th after a three year fight with prostate cancer.
