Robert J. Madruga, 69, of Gloucester, MA lost his courageous battle with Pancreatic Cancer on Wednesday, July 11, 2018 at his home, surrounded by his loving family. Bob was born in Woburn MA, on March 29, 1949 to the late John P. and Edith (Ward) Madruga. He was a graduate of Gloucester High School class of 1966.

He received a Bachelor’s degree from The College of the Holy Cross in 1970. Upon graduating, he received a commission in the United States Navy and proudly served our country as a Lieutenant for 6 years during the Vietnam War. He was awarded several medals and honors including the Vietnam Service Medal and The Presidential Unit Citation for Extraordinary Heroism.

After being honorably discharged, he attended Suffolk University Law School where he received a Juris Doctor degree. After working for a few years at the IRS, Bob started a private law practice in Gloucester, where he proudly worked for more than 30 years. Bob was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, brother and friend.

He will be deeply missed by all who loved him. He was a lifelong member of The Gloucester Elks #892 and The Gloucester Fraternity Club, as well as Bass Rocks Golf Club. He enjoyed golfing and shared that love with his children and grandchildren.

He treasured his yearly golf trips with his lifelong friends. In addition to his travel while in the Navy, Bob loved traveling to various locations around the globe with June. He had a wonderful sense of humor and reading “Pickles” in the Saturday paper brought him great joy.

Nothing brought him more joy than spending time with his children and grandchildren. When the kids would walk in the room, Bob would light up. He always had a story or a life lesson to share with them.
