Beloved father of Robert J III, Heidi, and Erin.  Dear oldest brother of John, Kathleen, Marty, Mary Pat, Tom, Eileen, Maureen, and Colleen. Grandfather, cousin, friend, and "Uncle Bob" to many.

From his son, Bobby:

"This weekend I lost the man who taught me how to hunt, fish, and feel at home in the outdoors. I love and miss you, Dad. Rest in peace."
