Robert P. "Bob" Jolie

I am so very sorry to hear about Bob´s passing through a Shrewsbury Education Association retiree´s email.
Bob was a wonderful, supportive colleague through out our many years teaching at the former Sherwood Middle School. As members of the Resource Team, we spent many hours collaborating to determine the best possible programs for the students we supported. Always kind and positive, Bob had a way of putting kids, parents and staff at ease.
He will always hold a special place in my memory of the time we shared as educators in the Shrewsbury Public Schools

Bob, Peg Phillips and I enjoyed doing afternoon bus duty together for many years at the former Sherwood Middle School in Shrewsbury. We used to laugh about breathing in all the bus exhaust fumes that lingered under the school's entrance canopy as well as having snow pile high on our heads during snow storms. As a relatively new hire in the school system back then, I leaned on Bob for his very sound and always kind hearted advice. He and Peg would always check in with me in the morning because they knew I needed their support as my dad was succumbing to cancer. When Bob retired, my husband hired him to do window treatment installations for our store, Chauvin Paint and Wallpaper in Webster, MA. Both my husband and I feel very lucky and honored to have known Bob. We would like to extend our sincere condolences to his family. Bob, may you rest in peace. Dennis and Marylou Luukko
