Robert was a retired NYC Police Detective and a security professional his entire career.

Anyone who knew him knows that he devoted his entire life to his wife, daughter and granddaughter, other family members, and touched the lives of everyone he met.
Robert loved to read, enjoyed baseball with Dina, hiking, photography and the outdoors but most of all he loved people. He treated everyone with dignity and respect and always put others first. He was certainly one of a kind, and someone that will never be forgotten.
