Robert "Bob" Clifford Hull, 85, a resident of Troy, NH, passed away peacefully with his granddaughter and daughter by his side on Thursday, September 4, 2025, after a brief period of declining health at Saint Vincent Hospital in Worcester, MA. Robert was born a son to the late Shirley I. (Cline) Amerio and Russell A. Hull on March 13, 1940, in Ipswich, MA. "On the kitchen table," he would say. On July 20, 1962, Bob exchanged vows with the love of his life, Frances "Fran" Rose Brosque. They had a simple ceremony in Amesbury, MA, with family and friends celebrating their love. They were happily married for 58 years until Fran passed away on March 5, 2021. Bob enjoyed his time working for Walmart before retirement, as one of their facilities technicians, where he was liked and loved by many. Before that, Bob worked for Simplex for many years. Bob loved to talk mostly about his time working with his friend "Shike" from 1972 to 1977 as a Special Police Officer and a Dog Officer in West Newbury, MA. Along with working, Bob loved going hunting, fishing, camping, and bird watching. He was a member of the Canal Sportsman's Club and the Associated Sports Club. Bob valued and cherished his time with family and close friends. He was always good at kidding and joking around at every opportunity he found. He made sure always to get a smile and a reaction. Mr. Hull is survived by his children, Clifford Hull of Fitzwilliam, Mary "Maribell" Cote of Templeton, MA., and Russell "Rusty" Hull of Gardner, MA., and his brother, James Hull of Ipswich, MA.
