Robert MacIntosh Obituary

GOFFSTOWN - Robert T. "Bob" MacIntosh, 58, passed away from lung cancer on Friday, June 5, 2015 - three days shy of his 59th birthday. The love of his life Becky Farrow and his two cocker spaniels Luke and Lacie were by his side.

Adopted as a baby by Jack and Florence MacIntosh, he grew up in Garden City, N.Y. He traveled extensively around the world to various destinations with his parents every summer. He graduated from Garden City High in 1974 and from NH College in 1985. Bob had three beautiful children, John, Paul and Jenny, and loved spending time with them, whether it was as a Boy Scout Master, coaching soccer or being the referee. Bob was owner/operator of MTC Building Group for more than 30 years. He had many loyal customers who had turned into great friends. He often would work in his sleep, figuring out a customer's deck or a remodel, truly wanting to give them the best finished product he could. Bob was loved by all, he had an infectious personality and was always laughing and the life of the party. He will be sorely missed by all who knew him.

Bob was a connoisseur when it came to food. He loved cooking for friends, and was always wanting to party so all could enjoy his culinary skills, whether it was making ribs on the grill or whipping up a batch of chili in the kitchen. His greatest joys were fishing, cooking, country music and traveling with Becky to Florida, Las Vegas, Myrtle Beach, Nashville and Hampton Beach; usually there was country music involved in each location. His favorite country artist was Travis Tritt, and he was finally able to get his autograph last year at Hampton Beach.

Bob leaves behind his significant other Rebecca Farrow and her son Derek Labrie and his child Aubriana. His sons John MacIntosh and his three children Saige, Rowan and Calais, Paul MacIntosh and his four children, Tucker, Logan, Gavin and Finnigan and his daughter Jenny MacIntosh and her two children Austin and Liam. Many nephews nieces and cousins.
