Obituary for Robert Stockwell "Bob" Shinn
August 5, 1963 - October 26, 2022
A beautiful smile, sometimes silly, sometimes mischievous, always sincere in any sentiment, was his final gift to this world as he passed peacefully at his home, his partner Willard Weislogel at his side. Bob’s life was an adventure, one that he embraced with fervor and abandon. His tales of travels to Europe (dancing at a Paris disco with Jimmy Somerville), of the tribulations and antics of a life in retail (More ties!), of Parenting, puppies and politics, of NY Clubs and movie nights in Mount Laurel, would leave you on the edge of your seat waiting to hear what happened next. To Willard’s son Jonas, stepsisters Sue and Steph, to sisters Terry and Jackie, to family and friends, Bob would want us to live our lives with excitement and enthusiasm; be present, feel alive, embrace the future.
Please raise a glass and share a toast and a tale: “Let’s Be Wicked - Finale”.
