The Robert Daily Sr. Memorial Endowed Scholarship
Honoring the late alumnus Bob Daily ’73 and his impact on the community and business students through a memorial scholarship.
Throughout his 40 year career as a tax attorney and professor, Bob Daily (CSULB '73) was committed to solving problems for clients and supporting his students as they were introduced to business and accounting principles.
Bob was born in Sheffield, Alabama, and earned a four-year academic scholarship to study Mathematics and Engineering at Samford University in Birmingham, AL. Following his graduation from Samford, Bob moved to California and received a Master's Degree in Finance from Cal State Long Beach. During his time at CSULB, Bob met his loving wife of 47 years, Annetta (Capellino) Daily (CSULB '75), and relished his time with his Kappa Sigma fraternity brothers. Bob subsequently worked for the IRS and obtained a law degree from Whittier Law School. Bob then established his private practice as a tax attorney and accountant in the South Bay while also teaching business and accounting classes at El Camino College for over 30 years. Bob worked with hundreds of clients through his career and many stayed with him for decades as his strategies and advice as a tax expert were invaluable.
This scholarship was established by Bob's family, including Annetta, his daughter Kristin, and his son Robert Jr., to support and assist community college transfers as they pursue a degree at Long Beach's College of Business.
