Thank you very much, Anna Frazetto, for making today's episode happen. 

How do you navigate the path of being a grandparent after a fulfilling professional career?   Additionally, how do you best support your wife, who was diagnosed with Cancer?  What do you say? 

Today, you will find out.

Join us on this profoundly touching episode of the Quarterback Dadcast as we sit down with Bob Miano, a retired systems engineer and former staffing executive from Harvey Nash. Bob shares the highs and lows of his fatherly journey and how he is now supporting his grandchildren’s activities—especially their love for baseball. Together, we explore the profound differences between watching sports as a dad and as a grandparent, leading to a rich discussion about generational shifts in parenting.

Bob opens up about his family's immigrant roots from Sicily and the values instilled through his hard-working, frugal upbringing. He shares heartfelt stories about his three sons, whose careers span technology and law, and underscores the importance of quality time in forging strong family bonds. 

One of the main goals of this episode was to hear how Bob has supported Anna through her cancer journey over the past year.  As we all know, Anna is a very strong and driven woman who embodies health.  So how could Cancer find her?   

Bob shares his emotional ups and downs and his actions to support Anna.  We wrap up on a high note with Bob’s hypothetical bestseller, "Ups and Downs," and a lively discussion on the importance of staying positive and supportive through life’s challenges. 

Don't miss this episode, which is filled with wisdom, warmth, and heartfelt stories that will resonate deeply with listeners.
