Bob was raised in Milton. He then lived in Quincy, but spent the majority of his life in Plymouth on White Island Pond. He was a proud graduate of Northeastern University where he earned his bachelor's degree in accounting. He furthered his education at Harvard University. He took pride in being a successful self-employed accountant at RGFA for many years. He especially enjoyed teaching the many accounting interns he worked with.

    "Bobby" you will be missed my friend. Your big smile and personality to match will be with me always. Me and my family will never forget the yearly party at the pond and the great times we had on the pontoon boat, dragging the kids to "Pee" island. Those are lifelong memories due to your openness, kindness and ability to connect with everyone. Rest in peace my friend. You have given so many people joy and fond memories. We love you. Steve

    I'm so sorry to hear of Robert's passing. He was an MHS classmate where we sat side by side in math class for a year. He was one of the kindest individuals I've ever met, and he was super funny. My thoughts and prayers are with his family members and close friends.
