ROBERT LOUIS STEPHENSON age 72, beloved husband for 32 years of Deborah L. (nee Tinkler); loving father of Lynn Moyer (husband Chris) and the late Skip Thomas; devoted grandfather of Samantha L., Alexander S. and Nicholas S. Peters and Paige R. Stephenson; cherished son of the late Donald C. and Mildred A. (nee Taylor); dearest brother of the late Don and William. A special thank you to Dr. Charles Martin, III.
Robert was born on October 8, 1947 in Cleveland and passed away on July 23, 2020. He was a resident of Willoughby Hills since 1987, previously residing in Willoughby and grew up in Cleveland Heights. Bob graduated from Cleveland Heights High School in 1965, Ohio University in 1969 and earned his master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from Ohio University in 1970. He worked for Northrop Grumman as a mechanical engineer. Bob loved stamp collecting and researching genealogy. He will be remembered most as a quiet, reserved, organized and funny man. Bob will be dearly missed.
Contributions may be made in memory of Bob to Alpha-1 Foundation, Attn: Development Office 3300 Ponce de Leon Blvd, Coral Gables, FL 33134.
Celebration of Life Service Tuesday, July 28, 2020 at 1 PM at THE FUNERAL HOME. Burial following at Knollwood Cemetery. Family will receive friends to pay tribute to and celebrate the life of Bob at THE ZEVNIK-COSIC FUNERAL HOME OF WILLOUGHBY HILLS, 28890 CHARDON ROAD (between Bishop Rd. and Rt. 91) MONDAY 2-4 & 5-8 PM.
I knew Robert at Heights and then for two years at Ohio U. He was studious and quiet and quite serious. Don Cameron and Fred West were also his friends. After I left OU in 67 I never saw him again. Now I never will. Life is certainly a journey with unexpected roads and twists and turns ...and then it is just over. May Robert have the eternity he wants and needs.
Attended Noble Rd Elemtary, Monticello Jr High and Cleveland Heights with Bob. Played Little League Baseball on the same team with Bob. When he was a youngster he was a Charater, always laughing and trying to play practical jokes. However, he developed in to a Serious and Focaused student in Jr High School. Lost track of him in High School.
Rest in Pieace Bob, may the Lord Welcome you with Open arms. Life is very fragile, one day here next day your gone. Live, Love and Laugh a little bit more than you did yesterday. Prayers to the Family, my deepest sympathy to the Stephenson Family.
From Noble Elementary through Heights High I knew Bob Stephenson as the brightest--yet most modest--kid in my classes. He impressed me as being quite kind. Thanks for letting us know.
