Robert Malody Obituary

Robert Thomas Malody "L.B.M. – Little Bobby Malody" Born January 20, 1963 and passed away when his big heart finally gave out on July 23, 2011. Beloved dad, husband, son and brother. Bob is survived by his pride and joy, ten year old son, Ricky; dear son, Benjamin (26); loving wife, Susan Barham Malody; parents, Bob and Betty Malody; sisters, Cathy Seulean (Mickey) and Robin Malody-Singer (Paul); nephew, Justin Kent; mother-in-law, Andrea Barham; many lifelong friends, faithful cat, Sid and the rest of his animal family. He was preceded in death by niece, Tara Kent. Bob was a loyal employee of Walgreen's as a computer tech and "Master" of many things: fixing anything, scuba diving, practical jokes and pranks, cooking, Jeopardy, gardening and anything else he set his mind to. He loved all creatures great and small and rescued all in need of a good home. Our lives will not be the same without him. He was always there for anyone who needed help. We will miss his extreme sense of humor, quick wit and passion for life. Bob wanted us to remember not to mourn his death, but to celebrate his life. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation in Bob's memory to The Humane Society of Southern AZ or The Hermitage Cat Shelter. A Memorial Service will be held on Saturday, July 30, 2011 at 10:00 a.m. at St. Michael's Episcopal Church. Reception immediately following. Arrangements by ADAIR FUNERAL HOMES, Dodge Chapel.

I have the most pleasant memory of Bob...it has to be from 20 years ago...I'm sure I've seen him since then but not often enough...the memory is from when my husband and I were skiing on Mt. Lemmon and Bob happened to be there at the same time. I was floundering to stay on my skiis and Bob came swooshing down the slope and swished to a stop by my side to say hello! What a sweet soul and gentle spirit. He has touched many lives and will be missed!

It was an honor and privilege to be Bob's friend, and neighbor for many years. I have so many memories of Bob, and they all end or begin with laughter. He could be serious, but always made even the most awkward moments tolerable. Kind and caring exemplifies Bob. Prayer for peace, and blessing to all family members and friends touched by his absence now.

I was so very shocked and sorry to hear about Bob's passing. I will miss his smiling face. Bob was always so kind to me and I was always impressed with his love and care of his four legged friends, all rescued. Bob loved life and his family more than anything. Please accept my very sincere sympathy for this loss.

I have many memories of good times with Bob. One of the best was a Vegas trip for my brothers wedding. Good times were always had when Bob was around. We worked in maintenance at Ventana Canyon together. Wish we had kept in touch more through the years. You will be greatly missed my friend.

Bob and I worked together at Apex years ago when he maintained the facility. I also joined him, with many others, in a scuba trip to San Carlos; we had a great time. I was saddened to hear of Bob's passing and pray for his family during this time of grief. Deep and sincere sympathy.

It was a strange feeling at the Walgreens today, last place we hugged and said funny things to each other. I will always have fond memories of your kindness and humor. Had some good times, back in the Roc Loc road trip days......Love ya Bob, Troy

Bob and I were good friends "back in the day" when I lived in Tucson in the late 80s. He called me Jilly (sometimes Jilly Bean when he was being silly, which was a lot!)-- the only person who ever did that. He was the sweetest guy and I'm sorry we didn't keep in better touch. My deepest sympathies go to his family and friends.

I was so saddened by the news of Bobby's passing. My heartfelt condolences go out to his family. The last time I saw LBM was at my recent little brother's funeral. I know how hard it is to lose a loved one. LBM was a great guy and was always kind to my family. He will be missed. Once again, my deepest sympathies.
