On Oct. 25, 2022, Robert “Bob” Peters, father of three children, and grandfather of three, passed away at age 72 after a 3-year battle with cancer.

Bob lived most of his life in Boothbay and was a devoted father, husband and grandfather “Papa.” Bob was born in Norristown, Pennsylvania to Nancy L. Peters and Robert M. Peters. He grew up in West Palm Beach, Florida and moved to Boothbay in 1982. Bob served in the Vietnam war and was a decorated veteran. In Boothbay, Bob worked at Washburn and Doughty, Goudy & Stevens, Deerfoot Samples, before opening up and running his own company, B & D Enterprises in 1998, where he built custom fishing vessels. Bob also owned B & D Screens and B & D Power Tool Repair.

Bob is survived by his three children, Christopher, Adam and Brian, and his three grandchildren Zachary, Flynn and Grady.

Bob was predeceased by his wife Debora L. Peters who passed in May of 2020.

Bob was a quiet person that preferred to be at home rather than going out. In lieu of flowers please raise a glass (preferably a glass of a good, aged scotch) to his memory.
