Robert M. Shagoury

Shag....thank you for gracing Merrimack's children with your amazing ref abilities. I loved when my children Raegan, Naomi, & Billy had you as a ref during the basketball season. You always had a smile for everyone and truly explained why a foul was called on them. Thank you for leaving footprints in our heart.

The Baird family so loved "SHAG" as he was affectionately referred to. His quick wit, love for family, friends and his community were LEGEND. His ever-present smile will radiate the heavens when he arrives. Sincere condolences to Lorraine, Bobby and the rest of the Shagoury clan. As the great duo of Lennon & McCartney wrote "Though I know I'll never lose affection for people and things that went before, I know I'll often stop and think about them" and we will ALWAYS do just that with SHAG-Tom...

My deepest sympathies to the Shagoury family. I met Bob through MYA Basketball. He was always there to guide and support the players, coaches and ref's. Bob was truly a role model for all. I enjoyed my conversations with him, his advice and mostly his mentorship. He was truly an icon in Merrimack youth sports!

Our condolences to the family. We will all miss one of our old time buddies. Dicky and Cookie

I had the pleasure of being his friend for 70 years.........bob was a loyal friend , a gentleman and just a delight to be with.......Many a basketball game or a baseball game or football game we played together........His knowledge of sports was never questioned........He was a music lover and at the age of 15 was on radio on a prominent station in boston......He hosted the hi fi club on radio...playing the music of the 50s daily after he finished school......He also had celebrities on the...

Offering our deepest condolences during this time.

Bobby was a MYA basketball LEGAND. He kept it very simple, all that matters was the kids. Whether calling the game, mentoring young officials or even providing instructions to the players, Bob was a true community treasure. RIP my friend.

Bob was a colleague at Digital and a neighbor in Merrimack. Always so friendly and kind to everyone, he was just a good guy. After Digital I enjoyed seeing him refereeing MYA games in town, always supporting the kids. He was always such a generous and giving man. It was an honor to be his friend. May his memory be eternal.
