Robert Brinker

October 1, 1941 — August 18, 2024

Robert J. Brinker passed away peacefully at the age of 82 in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Born and raised in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Bob lived a life filled with love, dedication, and remarkable achievements.

Bob attended La Salle College High School and continued his education at La Salle University and Temple University, where he developed a passion for both radio broadcasting and finance. His career in these fields was marked by professionalism and a commitment to excellence.

Bob is survived by his wife Hilary, with whom he shared his life for more than 60 years. Together, they built a family rooted in unconditional love and support. He will be remembered by his daughter Denise, his son Robert, his daughter-in-law Lisa, and his son-in-law Peter, as well as his five grandchildren Ashley, Zachary, Lily, Viola, and Conrad. His memory will also be cherished by his brother Ken and sister Diane. Bob was preceded in death by his daughter Caroline, his brother Johnny, his sister Edna, his mother Edna, and his father Robert.

Bob will be missed by those who tuned in on weekends to hear his voice on their radio. For more than 30 years Bob hosted the nationally syndicated ABC radio program Moneytalk. The starship Moneytalk entertained and educated listeners on all topics relating to personal finance, helping guide listeners on their journey to the land of critical mass.

The family kindly requests that donations be made to UNICEF [ https://unicef.org/ ], a cause close to Bob’s heart. Your contribution will help continue the work he cared so deeply about.
