Bob was born August 24, 1936 at Boulder, Colorado to Lawrence and Agnes Keuter. He attended school in Sutherland before graduating from Longmont High School in Colorado.

In 1947, Bob entered the U.S. Air Force where he served in Korea. While serving in the Armed Forces he met his wife, Carolyn Jackson, and the two were married eight months later.
