Vestal: Bob Haskell passed over peacefully to heaven on August 16, 2013 after a brief illness. He lived in Vestal all his life and graduated with the Vestal High School Class of 1953.
He went on to take many professional classes and was an astute student of life. He had a successful 15 year career with IBM before founding Haskell Associates in Real Estate. Haskell Associates was a premier company for 30 years that launched the careers of many of the area's prominent Realtors.
He had a strong faith in the Lord and was a member of New Life Ministries in Endicott. He loved nature, being outdoors, gardening, boating, music, playing cards with friends and was an accomplished dancer. He built several houses and also renovated the landmark Lighthouse at the corner of Nanticoke and Main in Union, turning an abandoned gas station into a modern office. He restored the historic Gaige House on Binghamton's south side and the Grange Hall on Hawthorne Street in Vestal, which was the family's residence for some years. His last project was building a cottage on Owasco Lake.
Bob was predeceased by his mother, Viola Haskell; his father Robert D. Haskell and his sister, Beverly.
He is survived by his daughter, Laurie Haskell of Vestal; son, Rob (Rene) Haskell and their children, Robert, Christian, and William; son, Jesse (Brenda) Haskell of St. Mary's, Georgia, Jesse's son, Taylor Haskell; nephews, James (Debbie) Blakeney, Kevin Blakeney and niece, Jill Blakeney; and many special friends.
