East Hampstead: Robert W. "Bob" Lavallee Jr. sadly passed away unexpectedly on May 21 ^st . Son of the late Robert Lavallee Sr. and Almie (Paquette) Lavallee, Bob was born on March 7 ^th , 1958. Raised in Plaistow, New Hampshire, he attended Timberlane Regional High School and later graduated from Plymouth State College. After graduating, Bob worked as an entrepreneur, working in real estate and construction. He spent many years working in the asbestos abatement industry, putting together large-scale demolition and construction jobs. He presently was employed as Director of Business Development for ACM Group, Inc.

Bob was known by all for his love of cooking, following New England sports teams, and spending time with those he loved. He has many fond memories of playing sports as a child. Summers were spent on Cape Cod with close friends and family, at the Blue Water Resort in South Yarmouth. He also looked forward to his yearly trip to Playa Del Car, Mexico, to escape the winter. He frequented local restaurants in the area and enjoyed nothing more than a good meal with close family and friends. Bob was known for his sense of humor and sarcasm, and will always be remembered by his famous "one- liners." Anyone who knew and loved him appreciated his jokes which brought many laughs over the years.

His life will be cherished by the special people in his life: his longtime loving companion of twenty-eight year, Paula (Gaff) Nestor, his brother John Lavallee and wife Kristi of Kensington, NH, his brother David Lavallee and wife Kathy of Keene, NH, and his sister Lynne Caldwell of Plaistow, NH.
