It’s with Great sadness & a broken heart to announce the passing of my father Robert J. Green on Sat. 9/5/20.
After much suffering & pain he is at peace.
We will miss him, not the person at the end, but the person we all knew and loved for many years.
Many of you knew my Dad, Bob as the gun enthusiast with his extensive collection. Dad shared with everyone including law enforcement. They always called him to find specific guns.
Many of you knew Dad/Bob for his charity. Dad belonged to the Kiwanis organization & ended as the president. Many years the Webster branch hosted the July 4th celebration that my dad was in charge of. He was always willing to help in any way he could. Being an Optician for 40 plus years, he was always involved in The Lions organization for many years-always working with physicians approving funding for eye surgeries & glasses. He headed many charitable events. He also belonged to the American legion for many years. He had a passion for assisting the needy & giving back to the community.
He also served in the Army during the Korean War.
Anyone could call my dad and he would always offer to assist. That included me whether it was a leaky faucet or a broken down car….he was there if I needed him.
That’s the dad (Bob) I remember before his health deteriorating from Cancer & Dementia.
We will miss the kind, giving & loving Husband of 62 years to Patricia, Father to Linda & Debbie, Grandfather to Taylor, Chase, Conner, Savanna & Tyler,
Cousin, Uncle & Friend to Many.
Love you Dad & Always till we meet again.
Rest in Peace Dad.
Heaven gained another angel
Bob greatly gave in time and effort to the Gateway Lions as well as hundreds or senior citizens and kids with eye exams and screenings. He was a joy to work with and we would solve the problems of Lionism and the world in periodic lunches on the Hill!
My condolences to his beloved family.
We were neighbors for 31 years and enjoyed many conversations and laughs over the fence and near the driveway. Bob was willing to lend a hand or some tool if we needed it and that went both ways. Our sympathy to Pat who also joined in our discussions, and our condolences to his family. God bless.
I was sadden to hear of Bob’s passing, he was kind to my husband Ben and me.
When I had a cochlear implant and could not come up with the $15.00.00 for my processor, he and the Lions Club paid for it so I could hear again. The processor cost $10.000.00.
I shall always be thankful for Bob’s help.
Pat was kind to me, she was quite a lady.

I am sorry for you and your family’s loss. I helped your parents with their insurance about 8 years ago. Bob would come in and share his knowledge of weapons – including knives and sometimes bring photos from vacations. Possibly Hawaii? He was such a kind hearted man and did make a lasting impression as I am sure he had with many people. Heaven has gained an angel – with a little spirit.
