Robert James Meffe, 69, of Macedonia, Ohio, died at his home on May 9, 2024.
He was born in Rahway, New Jersey, on June 7, 1954, to William and Emma (nee Litchco) Meffe. Bob attended Roselle Catholic High School, where he played hockey. In 1982, he married Robin (Kube) Schaffer and moved to Ohio. Bob was a musician, and in 1995, he opened a bar, The Bottom Line, which won awards for live music and earned him the nickname “Dirty Bob.” Bob divorced in 1996, and the bar was closed in 2001. He was a keyboard player, recording with Michael Stanley and playing with Street Survivor, a Lynyrd Skynyrd cover band, for nearly 15 years.

Hello, it’s Bobs cousin Chrissie. Bob, Kenny and I grew up in the same town so we saw each other all the time. Bob and his brother had a Beatles band and I was one of their groupies! I was sad when they moved to Ohio because I knew we wouldnt see each other much if at all. So sorry for your loss. So happy he was able to enjoy his granddchildren!
