Robert Joseph Tessier

Mr. Tessier was an avid Lakers fan. He was also a voracious book reader and kept up on all of latest best sellers and could not wait until they were released in book stores. Frank Sinatra was one of his all times favorite musical artists and he loved to burst into a Sinatra song for his family. After a long rewarding career as an engineer, Mr. Tessier retired from Boeing in 2003. Over the years, he received a lot of recognition for his hard work and made lots of good friendships with his co-workers. He enjoyed spending time with his children and grandchildren. In 1975 he met the love of his life, Luanne. Since then, they have spent every day of their life with one another. Together they enjoyed taking trips to Las Vegas and spending time with their family.

He is survived by his loving wife, Luanne; his children, Robert M. (Terri) Tessier, Steven (Tyra) Tessier, Suzanne (Travis) Nerguizian; grandchildren, Jillian, Caitlin, Kyle, David, Shawn, Noah, and Jena; brother, Harvey (Maggie) Tessier; sister, Patricia Collatos; step-children, Michelle, Eric, Tony, Camille (Jerome); step-grandchildren, Tashea, Joseph, and Michael; and a host of nieces and nephews.
