Obituary of Robert Vernor Dermo

Robert “Bob” Vernor Dermo Peacefully on Wednesday, October 19, 2016, Robert “Bob” Vernor Dermo passed through the pearly gates while listening to his favorite singer Jerry Vale in his 81st year. Beloved husband for 27 years of Christine (Granger) Dermo. Loving father of Melissa McDonald (Frank) and Angela Ford (Brent). Proud Poppa of Brooke, Paige, Brandan and Morgan, who will miss the good times spent with him by the pool and in his workshop, learning all sorts of new things and words that only a Poppa can teach their grandchildren and get away with! Bob is also survived by his brothers Peter (Linda), Terry (Sheryl), his sister Susan (Harry), his sister-in-law Patricia Trevors (Rod) and will be dearly missed by his nieces and nephews. Lovingly known as “Mr. D.” by his daughters friends, Bob will be most remembered for being a grumpy old man with a heart of gold. At Bob’s request cremation has taken place. A celebration of Bob’s life will be held at a later date.
