Company info

Bob and Cathy grew up in the Toledo, OH area and dated for a short time during the 60’s. After high school, they went their separate ways, completing their degrees, raising their families, and happily reconnecting 40 years later. Cathy will tell you that Bob was her first love. Bob says that their love is timeless. Bob, an adventurer at heart, spent many years driving cross country as a household goods mover while Cathy remained close to her hometown, traveling locally and globally for work and pleasure. It is rare to meet a guest from a hometown that Bob or Cathy have not visited. In their free time, Bob and Cathy enjoy playing cards and board games and welcome the opportunity for a friendly game with guests. Cathy’s lifelong dream has been to host a B&B and, in 2016, Bob surprised her with the gift of The Grand Kerr House. Bob and Cathy look forward to your stay!
