Gary R. Wobrock, 72, of Laconia, NH, passed away Thursday April 20, 2023, in Laconia. He was born September 20, 1950, in Royal Oak, Michigan. Gary is the son of the late Robert Wobrock and Eleanor (Jermolowicz) Dunbar. He had been a resident of Laconia for the past year, formerly living in Londonderry for 38 years.
More than anything, he loved being with his family and spoiling his 6 (and counting) grandchildren, who called him “Bucka.” There wasn’t a grandchild’s sporting event, school fundraiser, or party he didn’t miss. Gary enjoyed being outdoors on the water or at the beach. He liked tinkering around the house and being a handyman. We always said, if Bucka can’t fix it, nobody can. Most people knew Gary to be the person who could hold a conversation with anyone and could offer advice of any kind. He coached many kids and made a significant impact on their lives both on and off the field.
Gary is survived by his loving wife of 44 years, Christine Wobrock of Laconia; three sons, Adam Wobrock and wife Sarah Wobrock, Karl Wobrock and wife Brieanne Wobrock, Ryan Wobrock and wife Jennifer Wobrock; a daughter, Amanda Zoeller and husband John Zoeller; six grandchildren (Cody, Mason, Weston, Bennett, Sadie, Graham); and a sister, Joanne Wobrock. Gary was predeceased by his two brothers, Kenneth Wobrock and Brian Wobrock.
Following cremation, calling hours will be held on Thursday April 27, 2023, from 4:00pm to 7:00pm in the Peabody Funeral Homes & Crematorium, 290 Mammoth Rd, Londonderry, NH 03053. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the American Heart Association https://www.heart.org/.
