Bob was born into Eternal Life surrounded by family on March 14, 2020 at the age of 63. Beloved father of Thomas (Melissa) Modl. Proud grandfather of Amelia Modl. Loving boyfriend of Kathy. Cherished son of Marie and the late, great Thomas Modl. Loving brother of Sharon, Mike (Peg), Jim, and Joe (Ruth). Dear nephew of John. Dear uncle of Katy, Christy (Drew), Angela, James Jr., and Diana (Dan). Great-uncle of Will, Marshall, Marcella, Cooper, and Micah. Cherished by Kathy’s daughters Amy and Shannon, who loved him like a father. Bob was also loved and will be missed by his cousins, a tremendous group of loyal friends, and his canine companion Samantha.
Bob was a long-time board member of St. Joseph Benevolent Society, a Harley Davidson enthusiast, dart ball player, golfer, bowler, and loved traveling. He was an avid sports fan who loved the Packers and the Red Sox. We will cherish and miss his humor and his “Bobisms”. The essence of Bob was that he loved people and people loved Bob.
For the safety of all, a private ceremony will be held for family only. A celebration of Bob’s life will be planned at a later date. Please contact the family for information. We all are concerned about the safety of everyone during this trying time.
