ROBERT PEKOR Obituary
Age 60, passed away unexpectedly, Saturday, February 15, 2020. He was born February 1, 1960, in Braddock, PA, a son of the late Stanley A. and Pauline Sabol Pekor. Rob was employed as a software engineer for Middlebury College in Vermont. He will be remembered by family and friends as a kind, gentle man who was the "Greatest" Jack of all trades and aspired to be a full-time "Beach Bum". He is survived by the love of his life, his wife, Joanne Pekor; two sons, Zachary W. and Adam A. Pekor; a sister, Marianne (Sam) Arbutina; six brothers, James S. (Susan), Edward J., Martin P. (Renee), Bernard A. (Kris), Leonard M. (Mary), and David F. (Jennifer) Pekor; numerous nieces and nephews; and best friends, David and Mary Morrone. He was the best "Pet Dad" to his faithful companions, Sadie and Moosey. Services will be private. THE J. PAUL MCCRACKEN FUNERAL CHAPEL, INC. of Ligonier is assisting the family.

Dear Joanne,
We heard quite by chance that Rob passed away suddenly. We are so very, very sorry for this difficult loss. We always so enjoyed Rob's visits when he came to Vermont and we will cherish his friendship and will miss him dearly. He was such a fine man and had a gentle soul. You are in our prayers and wish we were closer to help you in some way. With love, Claire & Gerry

To Joanne and the entire Pekor Family,
I was shocked to hear of Rob's sudden passing. I went to high school with him and worked with him at Gold Circle. Rob was always nice to be around. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. May Rob rest in peace.
