Robert Salimeno Obituary
Bobby retired working for the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation. His favorite things in life were fishing (especially at the breachway in Misquamicut) collecting and restoring Volkswagon Bugs, and playing bass guitar which he did for decades in nightclubs and other venues though out New England.
He is survived by his wife of 44 years, Alida, his children Damian and Travis, his grandchildren Wylie, Tallulah and Aiden, as well as his extended family, Diane Randeau and David Stott.
He will not be forgotten."

Grew up in "The Alley" went to many clubs when he was playing with the Rhythm Rockers. Great singer, lot of fun, remember him and the band when they played at a club in New London, put on wigs and called themselves "The Bedbugs" and played Beetle songs. Ah, the good times and memories.
