Robert V. Osman, 76, of Marblehead, died Sunday, March 31 after a long battle with Parkinson's disease. Born in Lynn, he was the son of the late Lee E. and Margaret C. Osman.
Like his father before him, Robert had a long career with General Electric. Rising from the factory floor to management in the Aircraft Engines Information Systems, he retired in the mid-1980s.

He is survived by his wife Virginia; daughter Michelle and her husband Mack; son Gregory and his wife Kourtney; and grandchildren John, Nicole, and Mackenzie.
Memorial visitation will be held at Eustis and Cornell of Marblehead, 142 Elm Street on Friday, April 5 from 4-8PM. In lieu of flowers please send donations to the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research, the Salvation Army, or the Marblehead Community Charter Public School.
