Robert A. "Bob" Arcuri lost his battle with cancer on March 8, 2018 at Halifax Health Hospice Center in Ormond Beach surrounded by friends and loved ones. Bob came to Florida in 1961 with his mother, Frances Arcuri who preceded him in death in 2004. Bob attended St. Paul Catholic School and Father Lopez Catholic High School. He went on to receive his BA in Communication and US History in 1972, from Fl. Atlantic University, and his MA in Classical Rhetoric in 1974 from the University of Georgia. He later returned to Father Lopez and served as a Social Studies teacher and Drama director for 21 very rewarding years. In 2001 he moved to Daytona State College where he taught speech and drama for 13 years. For over 20 years, Bob was very active in community theatre where he performed, produced and directed at various venues. It was at the Daytona Playhouse where he made some of his dearest friends. Bob is survived by his niece Angie Belin, and his great niece Kathryn Bornhoft, both of E. Landing, MI. He is looking forward to being reunited with his loving mother, his beloved father, John Arcuri and his favorite brother, Richard Arcuri, and all who left this mortal coil before his time. The mass of the Resurrection will be celebrated at Our Lady of Hope Catholic Church in Port Orange, Fl. on Monday, March 19th at 10am, with interment to follow at Volusia Memorial Park in Ormond Beach, Fl. In lieu of flowers, Bob has requested that all gifts go to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
