Robert D. Gay

Robert “Bob” Gay passed away peacefully surrounded by his family on September 10th, 2024. Bob retired from Standard Coffee Service and also spent many years working for United Health Services.  Bob was happiest around his kids, grandchildren, family, friends, and church. Bob also loved fishing, gardening, and watching his Mets. When Bob lost the love of his life (Judy) in 1995, it was his friends, family, and church that kept him going these many years.  Bob was predeceased in 1995 by his wife of 31 years, Judy. He was also predeceased by his mother Effie, his father Clarence, and his brother Ralph. Bob is survived by his children Michael, James, and Amy, his grandchildren Jeff, Mallory, and Karley, his sister Evelyn, as well as many nieces and nephews. We will all miss Bob’s humor and kindness. Special loving thank you to the entire Nagle family, Lake family, Dr. Steven Chastain and the Port Dickinson Baptist Church. 

Visitation will be held on Monday, September 16, 2024 from 11am to 1pm at the Thomas J. Shea Funeral Home, Inc., 137 Robinson Street, Binghamton, NY 13904.  A Funeral Service will follow at 1pm.  Burial will be in Chenango Valley Cemetery.
