Robert Langford Obituary

Robert L. Langford II, 71, of Winter Park, born on January 8, 1950, passed away Tuesday, August 31,2021.

Lord, please forgive us for grieving Bob's passing so much, we know he is now at peace. Bob loved the world you created and enjoyed traveling to experience your Kingdom. Bob is survived by his loving wife of 43 years, Pam, his loving daughters, Tamara Bereza, Jessica Fry, their heroic husbands Mark and Tommy, granddaughter Stella, grandson Thomas, sisters Dr. Carol Langford and Gerry Liff. He was predeceased by his sister Bonnie Reese and parents Beatrice and Robert E. Langford. Anyone who knew Bob knew how much he loved his family and his animals. He was so proud of his "girls"! Bob worked for 30 years with his father running the Historic Langford Hotel in Winter Park. He was President of the Langford Corporation and Charitable Trusts. He loved fishing, playing pool, setting off fireworks and growing orchids and roses. Bob was a long time member of the Winter Park Rotary Club, SKAL and The American Hotel and Lodging Association. He had so much love to give, but most of all, he was a family man to his wife, his girls and grandkids. He considered himself a truly lucky man.

Private services will be held for the family. A CELEBRATION of LIFE in Robert's honor to be announced.

My relationship with Bobby, Pam, his dad and Gerry started in mid 1989 when I relocated to Orlando to help launch Universal Studios Florida. As a new resident Bobby was very helpful in showcasing his home town to me and introducing me to his valued network of friends. I always enjoyed his companionship as well as his unique business acumen. I cherish the memories of our time together and send my best to his wonderful family.

To the Langford Ladies,

I was good friends with Bobby for 30 years when we were both engaged in the travel industry. Besides our common interest in the travel business we had many others and I thoroughly enjoyed the social time we spent together. He may be gone but his memory is eternal.

My remembrance of Bob was that he was always pleasant and wanted to have a good time at what he did. My remembrance of Bob when I was an employee at The Langford Hotel.

MY heart goes out to Pam and the "girls" . Bobby was my best friend growing up we had so much fun racing around d and getting into trouble. We laughed all the time and always had so much fun. He is truly a incredible special soul.
The Langford resort was my favorite place for as long as I can remember, swimming, dining, dancing and just party central. I love you Bobby and know I
shall see you again.

Way back in the 50's when Mom said to go down the street and play with the new boy on the street. Well Bobby, we worked with that chemistry set. We worked the spotlight at the shows in the hotel. Boy was that a hot spotlight. We boated on lake Maitland, jumped the scenic tour boat wake.
André and you carried on with adventures. We were the old neighborhood. You and André I'm sure are home. God Bless. John Merlet

I was shocked to hear about Bob Jr passing. I will always have memories working at the front desk in the late 90´s Pam was always beautiful and had the same spirit to match. Jessica and Tamera were little girls that grew before our eyes. They were always sweet and manner-able. I haven´t seen you all in years but often thought of you all. Bob Jr was such the business man with a big personality and always a smile and his boisterous voice. May you Rest In Peace. I will continue to pray for the family and send my deepest sympathy as you all work through this difficult time loosing a husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle, cousin and friend.

I was secretary to Bob Langford Sr. from 1976-1981 and also worked with Bob Jr. at that time, along with his sister, Gerry. I am truly saddened to see that Bob has passed. He was a good man and I remember him being dedicated to his family & the hotel, and he was a pleasure to work with. I know his father was very proud of him. My years at the Langford Resort Hotel were some of the best of my working career, and I cherish my wonderful memories of the entire Langford family. My sincere sympathies to Bob's family, and I hope you can find comfort in the memories of your happy times together. Gone too soon.

Dear Pam and Langford Family,
Time has passed but cannot dim the bright memories we have of times with you and Bob, in your beautiful Florida home, here in Allentown, PA and, of course, our weekend in New York City during the era of Studio 54, dinner and drinks at Elaine's, Saturday Night Live, etc. Mike C. informed of us Bobby's recent passing and we are heartbroken but heralding a life well lived. God love him...we all sure did.

My sympathy to Pam, Gerry and daughters. I worked with Bob and Gerry at the Landford. Bob had a great personality. He got along with everyone. He was very proud of the girls. I'm sure he will be missed by all that knew him.

It was great knowing you, Bobby. From childhood on into the years. We had a lot of good times and a few adventures. I'll never forget your generous and kind nature. Quick witted and ready to share a laugh through it all. You will be missed by all that knew you.

Sending love to The Langford family. Bob was always one of my all time favorite clients! He followed me from one Salon to another over the past 25 years and I always enjoyed his visits. Bob was so positive and kind. Always had a joke to share and loved to give me good solid life advice. He will truly be missed.

My deepest condolences to the Langford family. I´ve known Bob since relocating to Orlando in 1989 when we were both tourism industry colleagues. We became friends and I always enjoyed spending time together. He was a Renaissance man with a unique mix of talents and an unconditional love for his wonderful family. RIP dear friend.

Sending love to the Langford girls in this heavy time. Bob lived a life many men wouldn´t hesitate to trade theirs for. Remember when you miss him he wouldn´t want you to be sad, he would want you to celebrate your life in honor of him.
