Robert Saitow Obituary

Of Pelham NH, beloved husband of Kathleen and father of Robert J. Saitow and Beth Gilbert, passed away Friday, November 16th following a tragic car accident. Robert will be fondly remembered as a wonderfully warm and caring man that loved his family and friends passionately. He believed life was an adventure and this spirit took him around the world on excursions that included scuba diving, sea kayaking, skydiving and a few loops around the track in a Nascar racecar. He was always quick with a hug and never turned anyone down that asked for his help. Following 20 years as an IT Manager at Sun Microsystems, Robert started Top Choice Travel which he operated part time while working as a call center manager at Heritage Plumbing Heating and Cooling. Robert is also survived by his 99 year old grandmother, Mary Liner of Topsfield, MA; his mother, Shelby Liner of Danvers, MA; sister and brother in law, Debra and Clyde Janvrin of Rye, NH; his cousin Charlotte Bloom of North Andover, MA; his uncle Barry Liner and friend Marsha Rust of North Palm Beach, FL; and in-laws Connie and Warren Carlson of Seabrook, NH; Cindy and Steve Littlefield of Tyngsboro, MA; Thomas and Monica Bond of Nashua, NH; Sandra Bond of Derry, NH; Diane Jalbert of Hudson, NH; nieces, Ashley, Keri, Kasey, Kally, Isabella, Alexandra, Madison; nephews Jason, Adam and TJ; cousins Eric, Jillian, Amy and Matt and by his loving, loyal beagle, Dynamite. Robert was predeceased by his grandfather, John Liner. He also leaves behind many, many friends and co-workers that will miss him terribly. Robert touched our lives in ways he could have never imagined and he will be missed deeply. Friends may call at the DRACUT FUNERAL HOME, 2159 Lakeview Avenue, DRACUT on Monday from 5 until 8 PM. His funeral will be held at the funeral home on Tuesday at 10 AM. Cremation will follow. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the New Hampshire Food Bank, 62 West Brook Street, Manchester, NH 03101, 603-669-9725, www.nhfoodbank.org.
