ROBERT FANEUIL OBITUARY
AGE 74 YEARS
Attorney Robert Alan Faneuil of Needham, formerly of Newton, passed away peacefully, on April 27, 2023, having just marked his 74th birthday. He was the devoted husband of Leslie (Saidel) of more than 48 years and beloved father to his three Faneuil girls, Stacey of Needham, MA, Alicia of Westfield, NJ, and Jaclyn of Needham, MA. He was granted his lifelong wish of having sons when he became a father-in-law. He was the cherished "Pa" of 5 grandsons and one little princess. Son of the late Phillip F. Faneuil and Irene (Grass); brother of Nancy F., and the late Edward J. Faneuil. Survived by in-laws and nieces and nephews.
He was a father figure to many. Robert was the family's patriarch. He approached everything in life with passion and dedication. He taught his children how to love without limits and that quitters never win, and winners never quit. He was the ultimate, die-hard Boston sports fan with a knack for remembering the details of any and every sporting event of years past.
Funeral Service will be held at Temple Beth Shalom, 670 Highland Ave., Needham, MA on Sunday, April 30 at 12:30pm. Burial at Sharon Memorial Park. Shiva to follow at Temple Beth Shalom from 4-6 pm. Shiva will continue at the Mann home, Monday and Tuesday 4-8 pm.
