It is with deepest sadness that the family of Robert Samuel Chiarella report his passing on April 7, 2020.

Bob, as everyone knew him, was born in Haverstraw, NY on January 20, 1943. An accomplished musician, he was best known for his beautiful renditions of country music on his steel guitar. He played semi-professionally for many years, with various country bands from New York to Florida, and belonged to many Steel Guitar Forums. His talent will be sorely missed by his fans.

Bob is survived by his wife of 54 years, Eileen; daughters, Lynne and Cheryl; step-sons, Norman and Robert Weygant; grandson, John Chiarella; granddaughters, Brittany and Tiffany Weygant, and brother, Joseph Chiarella.
