Robert had a fulfilling career with Goulds Pumps in Seneca Falls for over 30 years until his retirement in 2009. Spending time with his family and friends was truly his favorite pastime. Sports were also a huge passion of his with the NY Yankees being his greatest love. For many years, Robert enjoyed officiating both college football and varsity basketball. A model train aficionado since childhood, he was always delighted to share his beloved “train room”; an impressive and detailed layout that took up a large space within the family home. Robert could often be found at Turning Stone participating in one of many poker tournaments, out golfing, or taking in a good concert.
In keeping with Robert’s wishes, there will be no public services.
