Robert married Kay Williams in 1970, sharing 25 years together. She preceded him in death in 1995. He is survived by Alda (Sackberger) Davis whom he married in 2006, as well as two sons, two step-daughters, one stepson and many grandchildren. Bob proudly served in the Illinois National Guard from 1970, until his honorable discharge in 1976. He graduated from Eastern Illinois with his bachelor’s degree in business. He spent the majority of his career working for Master Halco Fence Company. At the time
of his retirement, he served as a chain link product manager. Even after retirement, Bob continued to stay close to several people in the fencing industry and never skipped a beat when it came to keeping up with the ever-changing industry. Although Bob could be soft spoken, he never met a stranger. He was one-of-a-kind, and his friendly spirit will be greatly missed. In lieu of customary remembrances, the family requests that memorial donations may be made to Cairo Elks Lodge 0651 and/or the Alzheimer’s Association.
