Robert enjoyed going out on the boat, digging for clams, and good books. He was passionate about his family. He was proud of all his children and grandchildren for their accomplishments, from passing their driving tests to graduating college and starting to work.

Robert was deeply loved by his family and was the center point in bringing everyone together. As he got older he enjoyed driving to the harbor to watch the boats passing and simply sitting in the sun watching the hummingbirds with his cat, Max.
