To his family and friends Bob Barrucco will be remembered for his lively personality, warm laugh and angel’s voice. Bob had love for many things in life but above all else the great loves in his life were his wife and partner for 39 years, Inez and his children Robby and Rachel, Michael and Renee, and Sabrina and Randy. Bob will also be remembered for his beautiful signing voice. Remembered for sitting at the piano with his loving mother Jean, from the early years as “Bobby Capri” with the Velvet Satins, to singing with Joey Dale at the Palm Shore Club in Brooklyn. Most recently he was proudest to sing at the weddings of his children.

Bob also loved a good meal; few things could make him as happy as Inez’s meatballs and sauce or a great slice of fresh watermelon. So many good times and laughs were had while sitting around the dining table. He always seemed to laugh the loudest and be the happiest when with his lifelong friends and cousins from New York. New York was in Bobby’s heart for his whole life. From being a avid New York Yankees Fan to sharing memories of Arthur Avenue and Artuso’s water ice and cannoli.

Most recently Bob had found a new great love of his life in his grandson Nicholas. Nick was truly the apple of his grandfather’s eye, and even after the long battle he endured could bring that signature Bob Barrucco smile to his face. He was a wonderful son, husband, father, grandfather, cousin and friend. The warm memories of his life will be held in our hearts forever.

Relatives and friends are invited to attend his viewing Sunday 5:00 – 8:00 pm and Monday 8:15-9:15 am at the Egizi Funeral Home, 119 Ganttown Rd., Washington Twp. Mass of Christian Burial 10:00 am at SS. Peter & Paul RC Church, Washington Twp. Interment Gloucester County Veterans Memorial Cemetery, Williamstown.

Daddy, you will be forever missed. I see so much of you in all of us and am so proud to call you my father. I am grateful for all you have taught us and will miss your witty dry humor, your laugh, your beautiful voice and admoration for music, and your overall loving presence. Rest in peace daddy, you don't have to suffer anymore and you can watch over us in a better place. I love you with all my heart.

Sono rimasto di sasso alla notizia della prematura scomparsa del caro Robert,ma vi sono vicino con tutto il cuore! Sentite condoglianze a voi tutti da un cugino italiano!! RIP ROBERT

My dear cousin Robert, I will miss you very much. I remember vividly sleeping over your house in the Bronx when I was only 5 years old and you told your mother, my beautiful Aunt Jean, that you were going to marry me when we grew up. We shared that memory from time to time and always laughed out loud from it. I am so happy that I spoke to you before you went into the hospital and I will carry that with me always. Your beautiful voice will also remain with me and I will especially smile when I think of you singing "Rock-A-Bye Your Baby with a Dixie Melody. You were lucky in many aspects of your life, blessed with loving parents, a wonderful wife and three terrific children and a very handsome grandchild who I know was the light of your life. Know that we all loved you very much and Rest In Peace. Love, Your Cousin Joanie

Good bye my dear friend. I will miss you more than you could ever know. We were best friends for 55 years and it went by in a flash. You always gave me good advise and you were the only friend I could completely trust. We often talked about and the memories we shared growing up and sometimes we laughed and sometimes we reflected, but we never regretted anything. We were always there for each other, and we both seemed to have an inner voice reminding us to check in on each other when too much time has passed. You taught me how to arrange music and that was a watershed moment in my life. I can't wait to see the angels faces when they hear your sweet voice sing. Now go rest high on that mountain 'cause your work on earth is done, and done well! -Jack

Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

May you celebrate a new life Love Phil and Nancy Muscarnero

His beautiful voice and radiant smile lives in our hearts forever. My condolences to family and friends during this difficult time.

My deepest sympathy to the entire Barrucco Family. May your memories provide you a measure of comfort. Also may the God who 2Corinthians 1:3 calls the "God of all comfort," comfort your family at this difficult time.

I was so sorry to hear about Bobby's passing. Even though he has been sick for a long time, it's still surreal. He had a great voice, and I remember going to see him in clubs with Inez years ago. I forced him to sing at my wedding, and he was terrific, no rehearsal, with a live band....he came through as a brilliant professional. God Bless you Inez, and your family. My heart is with you always, Love you, Diane Straub

To my brother Robert I love you with all my heart and will miss you so much. You, Inez, James and I have shared so many wonderful holidays and special family times together when you were well and even when you didn't have the strength you perservered and never complained. You would have been so proud yesterday to see how loved you were and still are. Inez and the children gave you such a beautiful tribute. Nothing but kind and loving words were spoken of you and your legacy lives on in your beatiful wife and children. You would have been so proud of their courage and strength. To you my brother I applaud you not only for your beautiful voice but for all the lives you have touched through your much too short a live. So to youI say until we meet again. To my dear sister and nieces and nephews Uncle Jim and I couldn't be more proud or priviledged to be your aunt and uncle. Something so sad yesterday turned into something so beautiful! I love you all from the bottom of my heart. God Bless You All Much love Auntie B
