Robert is survived by his former wife, longtime companion, and continued best friend, Glenda Wilson. Robert is survived by several grandchildren and great grandchildren who he loved dearly.
Robert spent the majority of his work career serving in the US Army, working at Pabst Brewery, and working at Seneca Food Corporation. Robert enjoyed history, trivia, keeping up to date on current events, spending time with his family, and watching the St. Louis Cardinals play. Robert was a fan of music that ranged from religious music, to western music, to polka music.
Robert had a great sense of humor, was kind, and was generous. His passing has left an ache in the hearts of all who knew him well and were lucky enough to call him friend or family. He will be deeply missed and forever loved.
