Robert Fillion

Bob Fillion, owner of Victory Lane Oil Change in Delhi Township, has served on the DDA board for about a year. Though he’s the newest member of the board, he said he’s already learned a great deal about the role the DDA plays in improving our community.

“You don’t realize all the good things they do until you’re involved in it,” he said. Bob had high praise for his fellow board members, and emphasized how much of their personal time they have given over the years, without compensation, in service to their community.

Bob has also been impressed by the DDA projects and accomplishments that have taken place during his first year on the board. Some of these include the continuation of the walking trails; the relocation of the cemetery sidewalk away from the road for safety reasons; and razing old buildings on some local sites and replacing them with safer and more attractive ones.

Bob grew up in Lansing and played football, basketball and baseball for Resurrection High School. At that time, “Holt-Mason” was a rival school, and Bob laughingly said, “My claim to fame was that I’d never been beaten by Holt-Mason in any sport.” These days he’d rather spend his free time golfing, hunting or fishing, and he has proudly called Holt home for 42 years now.

In fact, he said, “I’d be happy to never leave the city limits!” And when he does travel—to a home in Florida or to visit family elsewhere—“I’m always glad to come home.”
