Robert Greenberg Obituary
Robert "Bob" Greenberg died as he lived-with peace, steadiness, and quiet strength. He was 92.
For 67 years, Bob was devoted to his beloved wife, Maureen. Together they built a life filled with humor, adventure, and deep love. He was a devoted brother to the late Larry Greenberg (the late Sandra), Ronald Greenberg (Jan), and Elanie Blatt (Harold) He was the proud father of Janie Greenberg; Betsy (David Cohen); and Patti (Robert Gold). He was also a grandfather to seven and great-grandfather to two, each of whom adored him.
Though educated as a lawyer, Bob found his calling in real estate. He was never defined by titles- To all who knew him, he was steady, kind, and quietly generous.
Bob lived with boundless curiosity and adventure. A lifelong reader, he valued information, learning, and staying engaged with the world. Above all, he cherished time with Maureen, the love of his life.
He measured life in time, he'd awaken his daughters with his playful refrain, "Are you going to sleep your whole life away?"-a reminder that each day was meant to be lived fully.
Bob's legacy lives on not only in his family but in the countless lives he touched. His greatest passion was life itself-and he lived it beautifully.

Yesterday
Sending deepest heartfelt condolences to the Greenberg family on the loss of their gentle, generous, honorable, funny, and miraculous mensch.
I'll always remember "Bobby" not only as a wonderful man, but also as THE role model of a devoted husband (heart going out to Maureen) and adoring father. He and Maureen included me on family trips when Janie and I were dating in the '80s, and I'll never forget his humor, generosity, and our deep conversations. May memories of Bobby, and his memory, be blessings.
Sending you strength and much love during this most difficult of times.
Your old friend,
Alan
