Born in Weymouth, a son of the late Robert and Claire (McDonough) O’Connor, Bob was a proud lifelong resident of Weymouth.

Family was everything to Bob and just loved being around them especially his three beautiful grandaughters. He was incredibly proud of them and could be found wherever they were, from hockey rinks to dance recitals.
