Born in Newark, NJ, Robert was raised in Roselle Park and a graduate of Roselle Park High School and received his Bachelor Degree in Business from Kean University in Union.
He was a human service director for Union County Department of Human Services in Elizabeth and the owner and operator of Ace Promotion Products in Roselle Park and owner and operator of Body Fitness Center in Roselle.
Robert served four terms as First Ward Borough of Roselle Park Councilman.
He is predeceased by his beloved mother, Christine (nee: Anderson) Milici.
Surviving is his former wife, Joan Kemmet, two loving sons, Nicholas and Kyle Milici, beloved father Vito Milici, two dear sisters, Karen Palmiero and her husband Dominick, and Mary Ann Ledder.
Also surviving are many nieces, nephews, and friends.
On a day typically filled with love, we are struck with the most profound sadness and despair to lose Bob, a son, a father, a brother, an uncle, a friend. He was his son’s best friend and biggest supporter. The purest love we have ever known came from him to all his family. An unceasing, relentless love that only the luckiest among us have been privileged to feel and know. A love so great that It could produce the biggest smile ever on a day internally we were in complete turmoil. We all hope to be half as caring and dedicated to our families as Bob was. We know how much he wanted to see his Mom again and know now he can be at peace reunited with her and with Our Father in Heaven. We pray you really know how much you were loved.
Bob was a fun loving guy, a loyal friend who could quote everything from Rocky 1-9. He loved his family and most importantly his sons. He was an active member of The Church of Assumption and raised money for various charities throughout his life. He was a warrior and chose to “never give up”, no matter what curve balls life threw at him. He was grateful to be alive, enjoy his dad, his family and friends. Those of us who loved him, and were blessed enough to have him love us, will be forever changed for the better. He was a person who always let you know how special you were to him. His death will create a major loss in our everyday life. He will be greatly missed by all.
