Robert (Bob) L. Warner, 68, passed away on Wednesday, June 21, 2023 peacefully at Center for Hospice Raclin House, Mishawaka.
Born on December 1, 1954 in Plymouth, Indiana he was the son of Charles and Oma (Back) Warner.
He attended LaVille High School graduating with the class of 1973. Bob worked in construction for many years painting and roofing. He also worked at Bomarko in shipping and Del Monte Foods as a machine operator. Through his time working for Bomarko he met Dixie Golden and they were married at the Little White Chapel in Las Vegas, Nevada on March 12, 1990 and had been married for 33 years.
Bob had a great sense of humor that would always put someone at ease. He was a wonderful husband, known as “Super Dad” to his children, he was an amazing provider to his family, making sure that they never went without. Bob had great hands for fixing just about anything and took pride in his yard. Spring was his favorite season and he loved a sunny day.
Resiliency and strength often come to the mind of his family as they remember his battle with cancer years ago and his more recent health issues. Truly a man that loved his family with every fiber of his being and spoiled his grandchildren whenever possible. Family was the joy of his life.
