In loving memory of Robert (Bob) W. Bryan, who passed away peacefully on the morning of June 26th, 2024, at his home in Millsboro, Delaware. Bob was surrounded by his wife, Bonnie (Bryant) Bryan, his children, grandchildren, and his Anatolian Shepherd, Lizzie, in his final moments.
Bob Bryan was born on July 12th, 1947, to his parents Samuel Bryan and Sarah (McIntyre) Bryan. A proud member of the United States Marine Corps from 1965 to 1969, there was nothing Bob couldn't fix with his hands. Starting as a Transportation Mechanic, then becoming a Boilermaker and eventually a Nuclear Supervisor, Bob dedicated his career to PECO, where he was a respected leader and friend.
A devout Catholic, Bob always took time to remind his family how much he loved them and how he would care for them when he was gone. Finding solace in his affection for dogs, fishing and being out on his boat– it brought him immense joy to share these things with his family.
He is survived by his wife, Bonnie (Bryant) Bryan; his children, Carol Modesto (Christopher), Jennifer Tofanicchio (Vincent), Robert Bryan (Megan), and Robin Bryan; his grandchildren, Anthony Radico (Lauren), Zachary Radico (Jessica), Samuel Anziano (Amy), Paul Bilardo, Skylar Tofanicchio, Tea Squillace, Danielle Stevenson, Danielle Bilardo, Sebastian Bryan, and Camryn Tofanicchio; and his nine great-grandchildren.
Friends and relatives are invited to attend Bob's visitation Monday, July 1, 2024 from 9:00am to 11:00am at the Cavanagh Family Funeral Home, 301 Chester Pike, Norwood, PA 19074. A service will immediately follow. Interment Ss. Peter & Paul Cemetery, Springfield, PA.
