Robert Swihart Obituary
known to his friends as "Animal Bob", passed away unexpectedly Saturday evening in Aultman Hospital. He was born on July 17, 1955 in Canton to Robert W. Swihart Sr. and Norma Jean Burrough. Bob served a short time in the military and was best known as an over the road truck driver. He loved his motorcycles and friends, but friends isn't what Bob would call them, they were his brothers. When asked if they had one word to describe Bob what would it be? They said he was their Best Brother.
Bob is survived by Dorothy Davis Swihart; sister, Vicki Saeger Swihart; stepsons, Duane Davis Jr., Steve Davis, Jim Davis; and grandchildren, Allie, Duane, Skye, Malaki, Jakob, Madison, Steve, Derick, Izabella and Hunter.
In keeping with his wishes, no public services are planned. Condolences and special memories may shared online at www.heritagecremation.com.
