Robert Reese Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Aug. 30, 2020.

Robert K. Reese, 81, of Salem, NH fulfilled his final wish of his bucket list and passed away at home in his loving wife Emily’s arms on Friday, August 28, 2020.  He was born in Lancaster, PA, a son of the late Richard M. and Evelyn S. (Hauercamp) Reese.


 Mr. Reese worked as an accountant for PricewaterhouseCoopers and also was a real estate broker.  He enjoyed traveling and had traveled around the world.  He met his wife Emily while in the Philippines 18 years ago and had wished that they met years earlier.  Mr. Reese also enjoyed collecting antique clocks.  He was thoughtful, loving and caring, was easy going and was a good husband and father.  He fulfilled all of his bucket list wishes, from delivering his son; Winston at home with Emily to his final conversation with his friend Erich in Germany.  His bucket was empty.


 He is survived by his wife; Emily Reese of Salem, his four sons; Robert A. Reese, Jr. of Clermont, FL, Andrew K. Reese and his wife Arabell and Curt M. Reese and his wife Jutharath, all of Orlando, FL and Winston Erich Reese of Salem, two daughters; Christelle Milie Suarez of Salem and Caroline E. Brown and her husband George of Alabama, by five grandchildren and by his two sisters; Suzanne Arabelle of Pennsylvania and Dianne Reese of Lancaster, PA.  He was predeceased by two brothers.


 Visitation and services will be held privately for the family.  The Douglas & Johnson Funeral Home, Salem is assisting the family with the arrangements.

Robert rarely missed our JPMcCaskey HS class of 1957 reunions. He came all the way down from NH, and shared the news of his family with us.

Sincere sympathy to Bob’s family. He was a good man. Knew him through school years and was always glad to see him at at a few reunions. RIP, dear Bob.

Daniel & I were so sorry to hear about Bob's passing. Hi was one of those people who once you meet him you do not easily forget him. He was always so proud of his family and so excited to introduce them to others. We feel very blessed to have known him and to know Emily, Millie and Winston. You will all be in our prayers.
