Robert A. Sisson was born on November 1, 1955, to the late John Palmer Sisson and Phyllis Sisson. He passed away at the age of 70. Mr. Sisson graduated from Gulfport High School and was noted for his strong commitment to the Catholic faith and his enthusiasm for sports, with a particular interest in golf. Golf remained one of his favored leisure activities throughout his life. In his professional pursuits, Mr. Sisson distinguished himself through his dedication to excellence in both the automobile sales and mortgage industries. Beginning his career in mortgages in the early 1990s, he contributed his expertise to Realty Mortgage Corporation, Lindsay Mortgage, Mortgage Services of Mississippi, Benchmark Mortgage, and eventually founded his own mortgage firm. At the time of his passing, he was employed by Froogel's Grocery on Dedeaux Road in Gulfport.
Mr. Sisson will be fondly remembered by all who knew him. He placed great importance on his friendships, often regarding his closest friends as family. A private burial service, attended by his closest friends, will be held in his honor.
