Robert DuBoise

Robert E. DuBoise, age 90, of Avon, New York, passed away peacefully at home on June 19, 2026, surrounded by the love of his family.

Bob lived a life defined by dedication to family, service to others, and steadfast commitment to the values he held dear. Throughout his life, he was known for his strength, kindness, sense of humor, and willingness to lend a helping hand to anyone in need.

He is survived by his daughters, Mary DuBoise and Catherine Flynn, and his son, Robert E. DuBoise Jr. He also leaves behind six grandchildren, ten great-grandchildren, and one great-great-grandchild, all of whom brought him tremendous pride and joy.

Bob enjoyed many activities that brought him great happiness throughout the years. He was an avid baseball enthusiast who spent countless hours both playing and watching the game he loved along with umpiring community Little League games. He was also a dedicated bowler for many years, enjoying the camaraderie and competition that came with league play. An outdoorsman at heart, he enjoyed hunting and finishing. Whether at the ballpark, the bowling alley, or surrounded by family, he appreciated the simple joys of life and the people who shared them with him. Later in life he truly treasured time spent with his children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren, sharing stories, offering guidance, and creating memories that will be cherished for generations.

Bob was a proud and devoted Freemason for more than fifty years. Throughout his years of membership, he exemplified the principles of brotherly love, relief, and truth. His dedication to the fraternity earned him the respect and admiration of his fellow Masons, and he served with honor as Right Worshipful Grand Sword Bearer. The friendships and bonds he formed through Masonry remained an important part of his life.

Those who knew him will remember his resilience, his generosity, his unwavering determination and integrity with which he lived his life. Even in the face of life's challenges, he approached each day with courage and dignity. His wisdom, gentle nature, and enduring love for his family leave a legacy that will continue to inspire all who knew him.
