Robert F. Raffi Jr.

Robert Francis Raffi Jr., 79, of Londonderry, NH, passed away peacefully on September 11, 2026, following a period of declining health, with his loving family and dog by his side.

He was born in Littleton on February 22, 1947, a son of the late Robert Raffi Sr. and Bertha Raffi. Robert spent a cherished childhood growing up on Long Lake and was a graduate of Littleton High School.

A man of remarkable talent and drive, Robert began his professional journey as the owner of an antique shop in Dracut, MA. His lifelong passion for working with his hands and building things began with crafting custom grandfather clocks, a skill that naturally steered him toward construction and home building. This passion ultimately evolved into a successful, decades-long career as a land developer.

Yet, of all his accomplishments, his most cherished role was being a loving father to his daughter, Melissa, and a devoted grandfather to his two grandsons, John and Wesley. He found endless joy in his family, and his legacy of love will live on through them. He also found great happiness in the simpler things, always looking forward to going out to eat and spending time in Newburyport alongside his companion, Cindy.

From the classic cars he meticulously restored and maintained to the antiques he collected with a sharp, appreciative eye, Robert surrounded himself with beauty, history, and fine craftsmanship. He had a true eye for potential, whether he was shaping a piece of land or building a new home.

Robert is survived by his beloved daughter, Melissa Raffi, and her fiancé John; his loving companion Cindy Garland; Melissa’s mother, Mary Lou Raffi; his brother, Ronald Raffi and his wife Kathy; and his sister, Frances Denucce; his grandsons and most favorite boys, John and Wesley.

Family and friends are warmly invited to honor and celebrate Robert’s life during a visitation on Thursday, September 17, 2026, from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM at Badger Funeral Homes Inc, 347 King Street, Littleton, Massachusetts, 01460, followed by a graveside service at Westlawn Cemetery, 7 New Estate Road, Littleton, Massachusetts, 01460 at 12:30pm.
