| | | On October 13, 2008, Bobby died at the Fletcher Allen Hospital following a lengthy illness. He was surrounded by his family.
Bobby was born on April 4, 1959, the son of Nelson and Beverley (O'Brien) Lefebvre.
Bobby was a gifted concrete mason and for many years operated a concrete finishing business with his brother, Albert. He later made a reputation for himself as an outstanding boom crane operator at Gregory Supply in Burlington. All of his working life was spent as a concrete mason and in the building supply industry.
Bobby met the love of his life, Marty Abair, in 1997 and together they purchased 102 acres of land in Irasburg. That became Bobby's haven and the culmination of a dream of owning his own chunk of land. Bobby and Marty built a cabin with the help of their families and spent many happy weekends there.
Bobby loved anything to do with the outdoors, particularly hunting and fishing. Fall was his favorite time of year, and he looked forward each year to bird and deer season. Golfing with his brothers was a favorite pastime, as was bowling with his brother Brian and friends. He loved going for walks at Indian Brook with Marty and their dogs.
Bobby will be remembered for his quick wit, his wonderful smile, his gift of gab, and his incredibly big heart. Those who knew and loved him will miss him dearly.
Bobby is survived by his father Nelson, his siblings Mitch and his wife Deborah of South Burlington, Rick and his wife Mary of Williston, Brian and his wife Donna of Williston, Tim and his wife Nancy of Essex, Debbie Bodell and her husband Tom of Waterbury, Albert and his wife Sharon of Monkton, and Paul of Enosburg, and nieces and nephews Chris, Matt, Nicole, Travis, Douglas, Amy, Ryan, Kaitlyn and Hillary Lefebvre, Crystal Murphy, and Jessie and Sarah Bodell. He is also survived by the love of his life and best friend, Marty Abair of Essex Junction, and their four-legged kids, Minnie, Katie, Maggie, Mickey, and Buddy. He was pre-deceased by his beloved mother, Beverley.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated Friday, October 17 at 10:00 AM in the Immaculate Heart of Mary Roman Catholic Church in Williston. Interment will follow in Resurrection Park Cemetery, South Burlington. Visiting hours will be held Thursday, October 16, from 4 to 7 in the Ready Funeral and Cremation Service, Mountain View Chapel, 68 Pinecrest Drive, Essex Junction.
