Peirce, 72, EEN Director of Engineering" width="260" height="308" />From Gary Peirce</p>
<blockquote><p>Robert B. Peirce, of Dedham, passed away Saturday, October 1st, after a 6 year battle with prostate cancer. He fought with strength, hope, and grace. He was surrounded by his many family and loved ones at the time of his passing.</p>
<p>Bob was born in 1939 in Upper Darby, PA. He graduated from the University of Delaware with a degree in electrical engineering. He later went on to do post-graduate studies at Queens University in Canada and Northeastern University. Bob spent his career in television and post production here in the Boston area, including positions as Director of Engineering for E.E.N. and  co-founder of Pisces Productions.</p>
<p>Bob was an avid outdoorsman, pursuing  his passions for rock and tree climbing, sea kayaking, bicycling,  hiking, and cross-country skiing. Bob also enjoyed putting his  MacGyver-like skills to work building furniture and doing home repairs.  But, above all, Bob was happiest spending time with his beloved wife  Angela Kane, his children Robert Peirce and wife Liz, Garry Peirce and  wife Brenda, daughter Lisa (Peirce) Boyle and husband John, stepchildren  Bernadette (Kane) Goudreault, John Kane and wife Kristin, Rich Kane,  Linda (Kane) Maerov and husband Jeff, and Grandchildren Alex, Kate,  Jenna, Cammie, Adriana, Ben, Andrew, Haley, and Samantha.</p></blockquote>
