Obituary: Robert P. Sampson

Robert P. Sampson, 92
Robert P. (“Bob”) Sampson, of Hull, died on June 23. He was 92.
The beloved husband of the late Virginia (“Ginny”) Sampson, he was the father of Michael Sampson and his wife, Jane; Robert Sampson and his wife, Kathy; and Virginia Donnelly and her husband, Joseph, all of Weymouth. He was also the beloved cousin of Michael Bolger, of Brockton, and the brother of the late Francis Sampson and Helen Malloy. 
He was the cherished grandpa of Christine, Michael, Rhianna, Emily, Elizabeth, Joseph, Erica, Bobby, and Amy and the great- grandfather of Aubrey Sampson. 
Bob is also survived by many nieces and nephews and dear friend Carleene Bersani, of Weymouth, and faithful companion Buddy.
Bob was born in Cambridge and moved to Weymouth where he raised his family. He worked for many years as a machinist in the sheet metal industry. Bob spent his summers in Hull. After he  retired, he split his time between Hull and Fort Myers, Fla. An avid golfer, he enjoyed fishing for lobsters. 
Bob was well known in Hull as the “Green Hill Handyman”; there was no job too big or too small, and he was always up for the challenge and enjoyed helping his neighbors. He was devoted to his family and his faith, as an active parishioner at St. Ann’s Church in Hull. 
Bob will be sadly missed by all those who were blessed to have known him.
A Celebration of Life service was held in the Pyne Keohane Funeral Home in Hingham Tuesday prior to the funeral Mass in St. Mary’s Parish in St. Ann’s Church in Hull. Burial was in Hull Village Cemetery.
