ROBERT CROSS Obituary

Published by Bliley's Funeral Home - Chippenham from Jun. 2 to Jun. 3, 2010.
CROSS, Robert E. On the 31st day of May, 2010, Mr. Robert E. Cross fell peacefully asleep in the arms of Jesus. Like one who wraps the drapery of his couch about him and lies down to pleasant dreams remembering, there is no real death. He is survived by his wife of 28 years, Jacqueline B. Cross; his son, Robert E. "Eddie" Cross Jr.; his daughter, Kimberly C. Campbell; two stepdaughters, Erin P. McCarthy-Wolfe and her husband, Eric, and Amy M. Porter; six grandchildren, Jennifer Gobble and her husband, Shawn, Amanda McAulay and her husband, Ryan, Ricky Phillips, Rachel Lane, Michael and Kyle Campbell; three stepgrandchildren, Ian and Peyton Brockwell and Britney Wolfe; and seven great-grandchildren. Mr. Cross retired from the Richmond Times-Dispatch after 38 years of service. His family will receive friends 6 to 8 p.m. Wednesday at Bliley's-Chippenham, 6900 Hull Street Rd. A graveside service will be held 1 p.m. Thursday at Dale Memorial Park.
