Robert Drabik Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Bob was born in Newton, NJ on March 14, 1948. He graduated from Hackettstown High School, and outside of religiously attending all sporting events his daughter and grandchildren participated in, he loved to golf. Sports were a way of life, and his loyalty never wavered from the NY Giants and NY Mets, despite their performance. Always a fun time when he was around, and he was loved by many.
He spent 50+ years at ABB, with progressing leadership roles. Discussions of retirement were always coming up, but he truly enjoyed what he was doing, and formed numerous lasting friendships. He was the unofficial 'Beverage Manager' of the company golf league and looked forward to Tuesday afternoons.
Bob is survived by his daughter, Jill Drabik, and two (2) grandchildren, Evan, and Nicole Bruzzichesi.
