#130 Robert John Drumm ( Anna Barbara "Annie" DefflerJohn Blaine "J.B." DefflerJohn Deffler )

Robert was born 15 Jun 1920 in Johnstown, Cambria Co., Pennsylvania. He died 8 Mar 2013 in St. Petersburg, Pinellas Co., Florida. He was buried in Bay Pines National Cemetery, Bay Pines, Pinellas Co., Florida.

His grave marker gives his birth year as 1920, while his marriage license gives it as 1921.

On the 1940 census his occupation is listed as "New Worker"; I have no idea what that means. He served in World War II.

He moved to St. Petersburg in 1954 to be the band director at the Mirror Lake Jr. High. In 1959, he became the first band director at Dixie Hollins High School when it opened, remaining there for 20 years. He played drums professionally as part of a trio for many years.
