Robert H. Brooke III

Robert H. Brooke, 66, of Londonderry New Hampshire passed away on April 7, 2026, leaving behind a legacy of hard work, integrity, and a quiet strength that touched everyone who knew him. He was known for his character, his quick humor and for making people smile.

Bobby (Brooksie) was born and raised in Natick Ma. Bobby believed in doing things the right way. He worked hard, showed up for others, and carried himself with a steady, dependable spirit. Bobby loved his family and friends deeply.  He poured his heart into the people in his life, building bonds rooted in loyalty, kindness, and genuine care. He had a gift for lifting spirits, often with a joke, a grin, or a perfectly timed one‑liner that only he could deliver.

For 35 years, Bobby worked as a professional truck driver, a career he took great pride in. He was dedicated, dependable, and respected by everyone he worked alongside. His commitment to safety and excellence was unmatched, and he ended his career receiving an award recognizing his impeccable driving and outstanding safety record. It was a fitting tribute to the way he lived: steady, responsible, and always giving his best.

He is survived by his sisters, Cheryl (Joe) Dunbar, Brooke (Bashu) Kanal, brother Matt (Kate) Sullivan, several nieces and nephews: Joshua (Amber), Jennifer & Jay Dunbar; and Sadhya Anjuli Kanal, along with many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends who will forever remember his humor, his honesty, and the warmth he brought into every room.

Those wishing to remember him are invited to share a story, a smile, or an act of kindness, the very things Bobby gave so freely.

Visitation to honor Bobby’s life will be held on Friday, April 24, 2026, from 5-7pm at Short & Rowe Funeral Home 95 West Main Street, Marlborough, MA 01752.

A burial will be held at Immaculate Conception Cemetery, Marlborough MA on Saturday April 25, 2026, at 11am.
