Bobby loved his family dearly. You could catch him frequently roaming the halls of his children's school where everyone knew Mr. La Saint. He was a supportive father and grandfather making it a priority to support them at sporting events, band performances and recitals. He was there "grinning from ear to ear like a chestercat" as he would say.

Bobby was preceded in death by his parents and older brother. Bobby leaves behind his beloved siblings, wife of 46 years, children and their spouses, grandchildren, great grandchildren, a host of nieces, nephews and other family members and friends.
