About
Robert O'Shea Obituary
Bob, or Bobby as he was affectionately known, was a smart, funny, often charming character who had a great smile, and a big heart for animals. After being stationed overseas and honorably serving in the US Air Force, Bob obtained his college degree and then an MBA from Fordham University. After working in banking, he meritoriously served as a Federal Agent in the USPS until his retirement. He was also a tri-athlete, and a published author.
While we will miss him very much, we are comforted by his union in heaven with his family and loved ones.
Bob is predeceased by his wife, Sandra O'Shea. Surviving family members are: a brother and sister-in-law, William and Janet O'Shea of Naples, FL; two daughters, Michelle O'Shea of B.C., Canada, and Felicia and her husband Greg Chance of Cordova, TN; two nieces Jessica and her husband Derek Matheis of Chicago, IL, and Jessica Lyons of Naples, FL; a nephew Garrett O'Shea and his wife Kelly of Arlington, VA; a granddaughter Autumn Chance of Cordova, TN; and many grand-nephews. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to the animal rescue organization of your choice.
