/ Aged 91Beloved, Devoted, and Loving Father, Grandfather, and Great GrandfatherRobert Daiutolo, Sr. (Bob), born on 20 July 1927, deceased 23 September 2018, resided in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania. Devoted and loving husband, devoted and loving father of 6 children, 16 grandchildren, and 5 great grandchildren.After serving in the U.S. Army, Robert received both a bachelor’s degree in elementary education and a master’s degree in educational administration from Temple University. He was an educator throughout his professional life. He began his career as an elementary school teacher. Because he excelled as a teacher and showed promise as an administrator, he was promoted to a principalship in the Lansdowne-Aldan School District. Later, he was appointed supervisor of all the elementary schools in the district. Most important, Robert founded and operated Launfal Day Camp and Launfal School, both of which furthered the education of children. Robert loved his wife Donna, who preceded him in death. After her death, he surrounded himself with his children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. He was kind and generous to them, but his kindness and generosity extended beyond his family—to virtually everyone he encountered. His optimism, cheerfulness, and zest for life were evident every day, so that people were naturally drawn to him. He especially enjoyed hosting get togethers for family and friends. He enjoyed dancing with his wife Donna. Years later, he enjoyed dancing with his good friend Janis at Parents without Partners. He also enjoyed watching sports and listening to music. He relished family events, which included the sports and games that his children and grandchildren played. He cherished his visit to his parents’ village in Italy. The root of the surname Daiutolo means “to help.” Truly, Robert embodied the root, for his door was always open to a family member or a friend in need. We, his children, are proud to call him our father. We are proud of his accomplishments, and we are grateful for everything he did for us throughout his long life. We miss him , his family, thank the caregivers at LifeCare Hospital for being kind and attentive to our father during the last two months of his life.
