Robert Dudley's Obituary
Bob Dudley, 76, of Liverpool, passed away peacefully on Sunday at his home. He was born in Buffalo, NY, the son of the late Richard and Loa (Johnson) Dudley. Bob was a graduate of Fayetteville Manlius High School and Dartmouth College. He served with the US Coast Guard as a Third Officer on International Ice Patrol. While he was an active salesman in records storage systems for the past 25 years, he also owned and operated a mortgage company and restaurant in northern Virginia early in his professional career.
