Bob was born on the family homestead in rural Power River County near Broadus, Montana, on May 17, 1935, the ninth child of Fred and Freda Kramlich. The Kramlich family moved into Broadus when Bob started school and he graduated from Powder River High School in 1953. During high school Bob worked on numerous area ranches. After high school, he worked for the State of Montana Water Conservation Board as a surveyor. In 1960 he became employed by an electrical engineering firm based out of Billings, MT, drafting and surveying power lines and substations.

His legacy of love lives on through his 16 cherished grandchildren, including several spouses and a great-grandson: Robert and Michael DeWitt, Sarah (Kevin) Greening, Evan (Cambria) Kramlich, Rachel (Nacho) Haley and baby Luca, Ryan (Lindsay) Kramlich, Jason, Landon, and Kelsey Kramlich; John, Naomi, and Christine Jaeger; Emma (Alex) Kunz, Rebecca (Charlie) Hopman, Anna, and Molly Mogard.
