Robert F. DePietro

We announce with great sorrow the passing of Robert Francis DePietro, 97-years-old, of
Everett, MA, and Cape Neddick, ME, on February 29, 2024.
Robert—Bob to those who knew and loved him—was born on January 13, 1927, to
Carmine DePietro and Josephine DePietro (Marsella) in Everett, MA. Bob attended
Everett High School before serving in the U.S. Army, where he was stationed in Korea
from 1945 to 1947. 
For many years, Bob worked for the U.S. Postal Service as a mail carrier. His daily
deliveries brought him great joy and he quickly became a friendly face and staple of his
route—to both neighbors and dogs alike—until his retirement. 
Bob was predeceased by his parents and his nine older siblings. He is survived by his
beloved wife, Doris DePietro (Christoforo), to whom he had been married for seventy-
three years; his three daughters, Donna Woods-Lonsdale (Joe), Nancy Navarro (Tony),
and Susan Carr (Paul); and his three grandchildren, Olivia Woods and Andrew and
Austin Carr.  
Bob was a kind, humble, loving man. We were extraordinarily lucky to have had this
true gentleman in our lives as a husband, father, and grandfather. In honor of his
memory, please be kind to each other, take care of your loved ones, and be thoughtful in
word and deed. 
Services will be private.
