AUBURN – Robert Emile Joseph Desjardins passed away Feb. 12, 2024 to join his beloved wife of 71 years, Simone. He was born April 22, 1933.
Bob served in the Army for many years spending time in Africa, Germany and all over the United States as a medic and French translator. In his later years he acted as courier for St. Mary’s Hospital.
