Losing One Of Our Own: Robert (Bobby) Smith

Bobby has been described by his peers in the Palmyra Fire Department as a “Firemen’s Firemen”.  May he Rest in Peace.

Robert Joseph ‘Bobby’ Smith of Palmyra passed away Friday, Jan. 23, 2105.  He was 50.

He was the beloved husband of the late Rita (Belvedere). He is survived by his loving parents, Bob and Margaret; sisters, Annemarie Walke(Ken) and Jennifer McCann (Matthew); special aunt, Rosemary Fearon; and several additional aunts and uncles, nieces and nephews. Robert also leaves behind step-children, Pamela Gerkey (John), Kimberly Fair (Robert), and Tara Durham (Joseph); and his companion, Laurie Rund Brown and her children.

Bobby was a longtime volunteer of the Collingswood and Oaklyn Fire Departments and a member of the Palmyra Fire Department for 17 years. He was a life member of the New Jersey State Fireman’s Association. He served bravely and unselfishly.

A viewing will be held from 9 to 11:30 a.m., Tuesday Jan 27 (postponed to Wednesday, January 28th due to the weather) with a service to follow at the Weber Funeral Home, 112 Broad St., Riverton, N.J. Interment will be held privately at the convenience of the family.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that memorial contributions in his name be made to the Palmyra Fire Company, 115 W. Broad St. Palmyra, NJ 08065. Weber Funeral Home, Riverton.
