Robert is also survived by two special nieces, Jana and Martha Schulman. His pride and joy were his grandchildren, Katherine and Caroline Schulman, Danny and Aaron Blinderman and Zachary and Marlee Schulman. Robert was predeceased by his parents: Irving Schulman and Anne (Rudenberg) Schulman Rogovin and a brother, Jay Schulman.
