Not sure what to say?

I always enjoyed watching Grampy’s bees through his custom built window box that you could watch from inside his living room. He was such an interesting man! Trucking through the woods with him on Xmas Eve to undo his traps allowing the animals to have the food and survive was also really cool! Wish I had been able to spend more time with him You will be missed Grampy! Love you❤

We referred to Bob as "Beaver Bob", he was our trapper and friend. We will miss having him stop in to visit and share his stories and love of the outdoors. Our condolences to his wife and family, may he be fishing, clamming, trapping, hunting, and gardening on the other side of the bridge. We will cherish the memories......

Terri & Gail, So sorry for your loss Yvonne & I often spoke of your Dad & family we have many good memories of living on Tolend Rd.

I can still hear his voice saying, “Robert MacMaster, beaver trapper” to identify himself. What a kind hearted and wonderful man. (He trapped beavers for us at our house when they damned the brook. Very memorable person. May he rest in peace.

So sorry for your families loss. Sounds like an amazing man. I never had the pleasure to meet him but I am blessed to have his wonderful daughter Gail in our family and lives.

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.
