Robert R. Foster, a lifelong area resident, entered into eternal rest on May 26, 2026, after a brief but courageous battle against cancer. He was 78 years old.
Born on August 28, 1947, he was predeceased by his parents, Phyllis and Russell Foster, as well as his wife Patricia. He is survived by his daughter, Christina, his grandsons, Sean and Nicholas, his great-granddaughter Riley as well as his brother, Brian and his sister, Joy.
An avid hunter and fisherman, he was always outside & finding one thing or another to work on. He used to say that he wasn't one to just sit around and never wanted to have his hands idle. He was always larger than life.
Cremation was private at the convenience of the family; no service will be held.
If anyone would like to make memorial contributions, they can be made to Animal Manner Sanctuary @ https://animalmanor.org/
Arrangements have been entrusted to Cornelius, Dodd & Connell Funeral Home, Middletown, NY.
