Robert STEIN Obituary
STEIN, Robert Edmond
Robert Edmond Stein, 70, of Kensington, the husband of Susan (Benson) Stein, passed away peacefully Saturday evening at home. Born in Hartford, the son of the late Jack and the late Dorothy (Edmond) Stein, he was a teacher in the Newington school system until his retirement. An avid golfer, he spent much of his time with the Timberlin Senior Men's Golf League. He also had a love for UCONN basketball and enjoyed watching each and every game, but nothing gave him more enjoyment than spending time with his grandchildren. In addition to his wife, he leaves his only daughter and son-in-law, Laura and George Doherty; his beloved grandchildren, Paul and Katie Doherty; a brother and sister-in-law, Richard and Linda Stein; a cousin, Janet Edmond; a sister-in-law, Marguerite Benson; his niece, Kristin Losee and her husband Jenner; a grand-niece, Claire; and numerous friends. His family would like to extend a special thanks to the wonderful doctors who took care of Bob, including Dr. Barbara Fallon, and Vitas Hospice Care for their care and support, and his nurse Tammy Rynn.
Funeral services and burial in South Burying Ground, Kensington, will be at the convenience of the family. There are no calling hours. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to a charity of the donor's choice. Porter's Funeral Service in Kensington is serving his family.

I have fond memories of palling around with Bob when I worked at Batterson Park during the summers in the late '50s. He was one of the good guys. My condolences to his family.

Sue and family - Hilary and I extend our sympathies on your loss. Bob and I became good "retired" friends and he will be missed. He did a lot for our Association - much of which helped the TSGA for a long time to come. You remain in our daily prayers
