Obituary
Robert (Bob) Germeroth, 90, of Buffalo, New York
(formerly of Smithtown, New York) passed away peacefully
on November 10, 2020 with his loving family by his side.
He now joins the love of his life Anne, who passed away
in 2014, in heaven. There was nothing Robert could not
build or repair - from computers to brakes on the car,
he tackled it all.
Bob was a Geologist with the Port
Authority of New York and New Jersey for over 25 years,
and a consulting hydro- geologist at Dvirka & Bartilucci
Consulting Engineers before his retirement in 1992. He
was a lifelong ham radio operator, which included, among
other things, connecting families with soldiers during
the Vietnam war. Bob was a former trustee of the
Smithtown Public Library and with his wife, was a
coordinator for the RCIA program at The Parish of The
Holy Cross in Nesconset for many years. He also served
as an usher and a member of the parish council. Robert
graduated from the elite Stuyvesant High School in NYC
in 1948 and City College in NYC in 1952. Robert earned
his Masters degree at New York University in
Micropaleontology.
Robert is survived by his children
Joan (Richard), Peter (Cynthia), Elizabeth and Judith
(Philip) as well as grandchildren Eric (Amanda), Emma,
Sarah Beth, Robert, Ethan and Charlotte and
great-grandson James; and his beloved sister Joan (late
William) Timalonis.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be
made in Mr. Germeroth's memory to the Buffalo City
Mission, 100 E. Tupper St., Buffalo, NY 14203.
