Bob Pillsbury has a long family history of living on Lake Minnetonka dating back over 83 years and currently resides in the family home located on Grays Bay. After graduating from St. John’s Military Academy in Delafield, WI he attended Parsons College in Fairfield, IA where he majored in Business Administration. He served in the Coast Guard Reserve for six years and is a member of the United States Power Squadron, and Excelsior Rotary.

Bob’s career includes over forty years of Sales & Sales Management experience of which 30 years were spent in the Health Care Industry. Bob retired from the Herman Miller Company in January of 2007 after 15 years of service as Western Zone Manager, and returning to the Midwest where he headed up the Health Care Initiative.

My deep appreciation of Lake Minnetonka goes back to early youth as my
father was active in the LMCD, and helped to start “Save the Lake.” I became very aware of the “Jewel” that Lake Minnetonka is, and the work and effort that is required to preserve and protect her. I see my participation in the LMA Association as a way in which I am able to make a contribution towards the preservation and protection of this magnificent lake.
