Robert L. "Bobby" "Bob White" Ferrara, 84, passed away unexpectedly on December 14, 2019. Visitation will be 10 a.m. with a Funeral Service at 12 p.m. on Saturday, December 21, at Passantino Bros. Funeral Home, 2117 Independence Blvd., Kansas City, MO 64124. Burial will follow at Terrace Park Cemetery.

Bobby was born September 7, 1935, in Kansas City, MO, and was a proud veteran of the United States Marine Corps.  He was the master of sales and was a promoter and entrepreneur of many products, mainly vending, for over 60 years. He was the king of inventions, even up until his death. His mind was constantly working. He never met a stranger and would give his last dollar to whomever needed it.

Our hearts are broken but we are comforted knowing he is now with his mom and dad, all his cousins and friends who have gone before him, as well has his only true love - our mother Phyllis. He will forever be missed and always in our hearts.

Bobby was preceded in death by his father, Michael Ferrara; his mother, Flossy Pearl Patton; brother, Thomas Patton; and sisters, Ola Marie Divers and Frances Ferrara. He is survived by his son, Michael Ferrara (Eva); daughters, Gina Ferrara, Connie Balano (Joe Staudt), Patricia Ferrara, and Judy Ferrara; 21 grandchildren; 20 great-grandchildren; one great-great-grandchild; and many nieces, nephews and cousins.

Pallbearers are his grandsons: Charles Ferrara, Frank Valdez, Cameron Baker, Phil Balano, Ralph Siraguso, Frank Siraguso, Andy MacNaughton.
