Obituary: Robert Means

Robert Means, 68
Robert (“Bobby” aka Numbas) Means, of Norwood and formerly of Hull, died suddenly on May 23. He was 68.
He was the beloved son of the late Jeff Means, former Hull fire chief, and wife Mary Means and the brother of Dick, Mary, Billy, Chris, Carol Morris, and Ginny Winnett. He was uncle of Lauren and the late Ryan Means, Carolyn Winnett, Catherine Morris, Emily Winnett, Abby Winnett, and Derek Means and grand-uncle of Haley Donnell and Mason Means.
A longtime resident of Hull before residing in Norwood, Bobby graduated from Hull High School and was a member of the school football team. He was also a town lifeguard and a bartender at Cheers in Boston, where everyone knew his name, and the famed Circle Café in Hull. 
For a time, Bobby was both an EMT and a Hull firefighter. 
He was loved by all for his fun personality, zany dance moves, wit, and ingrained love of family, friends, and the Boston sports teams. His warmth, cheer, and ever-present willingness to help others when needed will be sorely missed. 
A celebration of life will be held at a later date.
