Bob Melcher, Visiting Angels Senior Care, Neighbor

Born and raised in New Jersey, I followed my father into the consumer packaged goods industry, first as a salesman, then, after earning an MBA, in advertising and brand management. Later I spent 11 years in telecommunications.

Finding myself in middle age, I wanted to own my own business in an area where I could make a difference so I purchased a Visiting Angels franchise in Eastern Fairfield County. My employees and I help seniors and disabled people to live safely and joyfully in the comfort of their own home.

I am married to Susan, a Fairfield native and have one son who works in electronics in Colorado.
