Bob's Story

Bob Furman..K through 7th in Chester, graduated from South Royalton High School 1971. Divorced, father of 2 daughters, Caitlin Caserta, Walpole, NH and Abby Ventura, Indianapolis, Indiana. 4 Grandsons: Sam Caserta, Henry Caserta, Carter Fellows and Lucio Ventura. Marketing Director for River Valley Credit Union in Brattleboro, VT. I have a Chester RFD address, but live in Cambridgeport (between Saxtons River and Grafton, for those who don't know...I didn't) Engaged to Tonja Chase. What a long strange trip its been.... I always wanted to be a radio Anncr when I grew up. My family and friends thought that was a good idea. As it turns out, they were right. I blow off steam with a fast ride in a convertible or on a motorcycle, and I have a couple of speeding tickets to prove it.. Alice Bliss is my hero and my moral compass. She is 99 years old in 2010. God Bless Alice. Obsessions: Cars, motorcycles, watches, jackets, tools. I lived in a dorm on Marlborough Street in Boston. My 2nd day there I met a bunch of guys moving out, so I held the door for them. They were robbing the dorm. Bumpkin...... My best friend would tell you I'm very loyal and giving, rather sensitive, that I am secretly more sophisticated and well read than anyone would believe. I tried to hide that stuff all my life by trying to be funny. People who don't know me very well would probably describe me as a jerk, especially people I've had to fire over the years.

at part of my job. I like to dress in a sport jacket and tie. I have dressed that way for decades, and do not feel comfortable at work unless I am wearing that attire. I have a lot of ties. I share my home with Tonja Chase, 4 cats and her son Rylan, which I find to my liking, very much. Tonja and I are very compatible and even though she is 12 years younger, I am almost as mature as she is. She tells me everything straight, and even though it isn't always what I want to hear, I need that and I have never been happier in my life than I am right now. I've been recognized nationally for advertising and program/event origination. I started the VT Apple Festival in Springfield. I had the initial idea, Frank Zezza, Rick Joyce, Alan Woodbury, George Sexton and Rick Bibens added to it and made it all happen. In 10 years, I hope to be still living. I'm going to get there by taking better care of myself. My oldest friend is Roger Westine, who grew up one house away on Orcutt Drive in Chester. Roger is very intelligent, funny as hell, and a very hard working guy. I respect that and I respect him very much. I will never forget Randy Blake waking me up one morning to go down to the Green and see a Rolls Royce that was parked there. It belonged to a woman from Montreal who always stayed at the Chester Inn on her way to and from her summer home on Martha's Vineyard. In 2009 I found a reasonably priced 1979 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow II, thus completing a childhood dream.
