Bob was born August 31, 1954 in Orange, NJ. He grew up in Belford, NJ and spent the majority of his adult life living in Tinton Falls, NJ.
Family was the center of Bob's life, and he never met an animal that he didn’t love. Bob had a passion for all things Disney, baseball, cars, NHRA, gardening and restoration projects.
Bob was predeceased by his parents, Joseph and Marie Denton, and his sister, Joanne Oram. He is survived by his wife of 43 years, Jane Denton, his son and daughter-in-law, Robert and Brittany Denton, daughter and son-in-law, Katie and Dennis Shannon, 6 grandchildren, his sister and brother-in-law, Susan and Fred Mancuso and multiple beloved nieces and nephews.
The family will be holding a celebration of life at a later date in the summer.
The family would like to thank the staff at Memorial Sloan Kettering, and his friend and physician, Steven Swartz for their years of care and support.
