Robert Piccone Obituary
February 17 1938 - October 16, 2010
Los Angeles, California- Robert (Bob) James Piccone
The second son born to Marie and Alfred Piccone of Philadelphia, Bob was a unique, irreverent and charismatic character, close to family, loyal to friends, and adored by his grandchildren beyond reason. He loved his garden and his right to rarely leave it, barring an occasional trip to the 99 cent store.
Bob is survived by his wife of 52 years, Rita (Pontarelli) Piccone, daughters Robin Piccone and Renee (Piccone) Avolio. Brothers Fred Piccone and Gennaro Rosetti, sister Linda Rosetti, and 9 beloved grandchildren and nephews.
A memorial service will be held to celebrate his life. In lieu of flowers, donations can be deposited in any nearly expired parking meter. Bob hated to see people get tickets.
To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

Sincere condolences to the Piccone/Rosetti family. Your loss can only be comforted by the sweet memories of Bobby. He was a good man. He gave me my first job in California and always treated me well. He loved his family beyond measure and was proud of all of you. Rest in peace, Bobby.
