 As an adult he lived in Tres Pinos, Hollister, and finally, settled in San Juan Bautista, where he enjoyed an active role in the community and local government. He enjoyed photography, classic cars, history and wide open spaces.
 He was preceded in death by his parents, Selwyn and Margaret Paradice.
 Robert is survived by daughters Crystal E.P. McAbee and Clarisse M. P. McAbee, brother Richard Paradice, and numerous grandchildren, nephews and nieces.
