He worked for NCR, AT&T, and Logical Solutions. Upon retirement, Bob and Fran moved from Branford to Glover, Vermont, after vacationing in Glover for over 30 years.
Bob is survived by his wife, Frances, of 57 years; his daughter, Deborah Ezold (James); and son, Michael. His pride and joy were his grandsons, James Jr. and Matthew Ezold. He was predeceased by his parents, Alton S. Carsten and Katharine G. Carsten, and his brother, Alton S. “Woody” Carsten Jr.
Bob was a member of the American Legion and a deacon at his local church. In addition to always tinkering with mechanical things, he enjoyed the outdoors, fishing, kayaking, hiking, and helping his dear friend sugaring in the spring. Bob and Fran enjoyed traveling to Florida during the winter months and to Alaska on their dream vacation.
The family would like to thank North Country Hospital for the wonderful care he was given during his final days.
“Rest in peace; we love you. You will never be forgotten.”
There will be no visitation hours. Funeral arrangements will be made at a later date.
