Robert M. Pollack, 68, of Chappaqua, passed away on January 12, 2024 surrounded by his wife and son. Robert is survived by his loving wife, Judith, devoted son Adam and daughter-in-law Yuri, mother Phyllis, siblings Karen and Courtney, and his niece and nephews. Robert was born in the Bronx to Albert and Phyllis Pollack. He attended Ardsley High School and was the quarterback of his football team. Robert then attended the University at Buffalo where he acquired a lifelong passion for business and entrepreneurship. As the founder and President of Pollack Paint and Field, Robert left an enduring mark on the paint industry in the Tri-State area. For Robert, every project was significant. He was always proud of the impacts of his company's products, from lining the fields of local high schools to the batter's boxes and foul lines at iconic venues like Yankee Stadium and Citi Field. In addition to business, Robert had a strong philanthropic spirit, frequently volunteering at soup kitchens and organizing food donations through his company during the holidays.
Above all, Robert was a dedicated family man. He was married to his beloved wife, Judith, for 40 years. Robert and his son, Adam, shared a passion for playing and watching sports, and were avid Yankees, Mets, Jets, and Giants fans. Robert also was active in the Chappaqua community, serving as a baseball coach and Cub Scout Cubmaster for many years.
