Robert Roger St. Pierre

Robert "Bob" St. Pierre passed peacefully in his Huntingtown, MD home on July 12, 2020 at the age of 75 with his loving wife of 51 years, Mary St. Pierre, by his side. In addition to Mary, Bob is survived by his sons, Robert St. Pierre (Sheila Lynch St. Pierre) of Georgia and Michael St. Pierre (Angela Casey St. Pierre) of Virginia, grandchildren Charlotte, Casey, Cory, Sean, Drew and Kaela St. Pierre and nieces and nephew Laurie, Maria Elena and Ricky St. Pierre. Bob was born on April 22, 1945 in Framingham, MA. He was preceded in death by his parents, Roger and Mary St. Pierre, and his brothers Richard and Ronald. After graduating from Cardinal Spellman High School in Brockton, MA, Bob received his bachelor’s degree from Villanova University and his master’s degree from the University of Maryland where he also achieved ABD status in his PhD studies. Upon completing his coursework, Bob continued his lifelong devotion to academics as English Department Chair and ultimately Director of Studies/Vice Principal at Bishop McNamara High School. He was named to the McNamara Hall of Fame as the Head Coach of the 1980 Championship Golf Team. After 15 years at McNamara, Bob moved on to the College of Southern Maryland where he served as Director of Student Development before returning to the classroom and his first love as an English Professor. He retired in 2013, concluding his 40 year career in education. Bob was an avid sportsman, with his favorite activities being golf, tennis, and sailing. But, he could give you a run for your money in just about any sport of your choosing. A scholar, an athlete, and one also with a profound devotion to his family, he was truly a modern renaissance man. A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated at Jesus the Divine Word Catholic Church, 885 Cox Road, Huntingtown, MD 20639 on Thursday, August 27, 2020 at 11:00 AM.
