Robert Douglas MacPherson

Rob honorably and proudly served in the United States Marine Corp. After his service, Rob became a successful entrepreneur in many different industries. In his spare time, Rob enjoyed watching baseball and hanging out with his dog, Charlie. He was an extremely loving and devoted father, son, brother, uncle and friend. He called his mother everyday just to make sure she was doing well. After the passing of his brother, Dave, Rob stayed connected with Dave’s children, always making sure they were doing ok and had everything they needed. Rob always kept a very positive attitude. He was very fun and kind and has made many friends throughout his life.

Left to cherish his memory is his son, Ryan MacPherson (Johanna); daughter, Emily MacPherson (fiancé Zymarus Byrd); grandchildren, Ava Byrd and Roman MacPherson; parents, Dave and Jennie MacPherson; siblings, Barb, Carol, Rich, Jen and Christine; significant other and loving partner, Jennifer Gaul; his first wife, lifelong friend and mother to his children, Linda O’Connor; and many loving nieces, nephews and friends.

Rob will be laid to rest at the Massachusetts National Cemetery at a later date. In lieu of flowers, please consider sending donations in memory of Rob to the Colorectal Cancer Alliance, https://www.ccalliance.org/
