• Notes

  ROBERT LASDON On Wednesday evening, January 17, 2007, Robert S. Lasdon, 78, passed peacefully from this world. He was born in New York on August 3, 1928, to Mildred and William S. Lasdon. He grew up in Westchester County, where he learned of the importance of philanthropy, through his family's foundation. His generosity would continue through his lifetime. Robert was a resident of Manalapan for over 25 years and a supported many local charities. He was a significant supporter of the American Red Cross, the Kravits Center, the Newbern Suites at Good Samaritan Hospital, and many other worthwhile causes. Anyone who knew Robert will remember his zest for life, his large smile, his overwhelming laugh, his utter devotion to the New York Yankees, and his beautiful spirit. He was an avid traveler throughout his life, and could be found riding an elephant in India, attending the opera in Vienna, or having a tuxedo custom made in Hong Kong for the Red Cross Ball. He frequently entertained at his home in Manalapan and was known for his lavish theme parties. He always made sure that everyone felt welcome in his home, especially if you brought chocolate. A competitive bridge player, Robert was always up for a game. He would say "life is meant for living" and he truly lived every moment of his life. He is survived by his long time partner and best friend, Ron, and by many loving family and friends.f
