Charles Robert Johnson, 87, known to his loved ones as Bob, of Brockton, MA, passed away peacefully on May 7, 2023, at his daughter's home in West Bridgewater, MA, after a lengthy illness. He was born on August 3, 1935, in Randolph, MA, to the late Norman O and Annie B Johnson. Bob was also preceded in death by his beloved wife Beverly, sister, Helen Van Dam, and his son, Joseph P Johnson.

Bob was a longtime resident of Brockton, MA. He was a pipefitter by trade and had a lengthy career. He was a proud member of the United Association of Journeymen and Apprentices of the Plumbing and Pipe Fitting Industry of the United States and Local 51.

Bob is survived by his sister, Marilyn Gould, and his brother, Norman Johnson. He is also survived by his son, Charles R Johnson Jr, his daughter, Robin L Forbes, many grandchildren and great-grandchildren, and his beloved dog, Riley.

For those who wish to honor Bob's memory, In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to the Massachusetts Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired or the ASPCA.

Rest in peace, Bob. You will be missed.

I've missed the chats in the yard with him since I moved out of the neighborhood years ago. Id drive by occasionally to see if he was sitting in the yard. Lots of memories from my childhood. Rest in peace Mr. J.
