Robert Simoneau Obituary

Robert J. Simoneau, Jr., avid pool player and talented woodcrafter, entered eternal peace on Sept. 19, 2022 at the age of 60.

Robert "Bob" was born in Hartford, son of the late Robert Sr. and Norma (Cortinas) Simoneau. He grew up in Enfield, where he continued to reside. Bob was a gifted and incredibly artistic man with exceptional skill and passion for the game of pool. He possessed a unique talent in woodcrafting intricate, custom pool cues, along with other one-of-a-kind creations. Bob also held deeply a love for music, singing, fishing and nature.

He leaves behind his sister, Brenda Lee; nieces, Jennifer Saxton, Jessie Lisk and her husband, Zachary; his great-nieces and nephews, Noah, Lylah, Mila and Jack; and many cousins and extended family in Connecticut and Texas.

A celebration of life will be held to honor Bob's memory, on Sunday, Oct. 9, 2022, at 12:30 p.m., at Northwest Park pavilion; family and friends are welcome.

Grateful for the compassionate care Bob received from medical and nursing staff, family requests memorial donations be made to Parkway Pavilion's Recreation Department in Enfield.

I will forever miss our laughs and lighthearted conversation. You had a quiet way about you and yet were a magnet to so many. You were honest and sincere and always gave more than you asked. I will forever cherish what I have in my possession created by you.
