To leave a condolence, please go to www.normandean.com Born January 28th, 1959 in Brooklyn NY, Bobby was one of six children. He moved with his family to Denville in 1964. He worked for the last 20 years with his dear friends at TEV Trucking. Prior to that, he was owner of R.J. Montgomery Trucking. Bob was larger than life to his family and friends. You could count on him to be there whenever you needed help. "Uncle Bob" loved being with his nieces, nephews and their friends at all times. Work was not work for him but time to be with people he loved and cared for. His generosity, big heart and love of family and friends will be severely missed. He leaves only happy memories to his parents Matthew and Estelle; brothers Matthew (Catherine), Thomas, Patrick (Kathleen), Daniel, and sister Jeanne Montgomery Smith (Neil); his nine adoring nieces and nephews Britney, Katy, Courtney, Maggie, Megan (William), Matthew J., Matthew P., Rosemary, and Daniel; three great nieces and nephews Tyler, Hunter, Leah; Uncle John and Aunt Carol; and many cousins and dear friends.
