Robert Krajenke Obituary

Robert would like to let you know that his work here is done. He transitioned into the loving arms of the Father on January 5, 2024. He was 84 years old. His new mission takes him to a wonderful place where he will be with his parents, Clarence ("Babe") and Wilma, and his many friends and family who departed before him.

Robert's passion has been that of a spiritual teacher, helping others through his writing, poetry, and ministry. He was known to be a dedicated spiritual seeker, putting into practice life as Jesus taught us.

During the past 40 years he has served as an active ordained Minister of the Fellowship of the Inner Light, an Interfaith Church in Virginia Beach, presenting many Sunday sermons and leading workshops.

Robert wrote six published books and multiple pamphlets and articles, all focusing on the meaning of life and our relationship with God. A lifetime member of the Association for Research and Enlightenment, his most popular book was "Edgar Cayce's Story of the Bible" which provided a comprehensive interpretation of the entire Bible based upon Edgar Cayce's own Sunday School class notes at First Presbyterian church in Virginia Beach.

Robert was pre-deceased by his parents and siblings Frank and Mary. Robert leaves behind his son, Robert Krajenke, Jr., his siblings Susan, Stan, and Joanne, and his long time dear friend Lynne, whom he often referred to as "my beloved".

A Celebration of Life service will be held at the Association for Research and Enlightenment on Saturday, February 3rd, at 2 PM. Memorial gifts may be made to either the Association for Research and Enlightenment or the Fellowship of The Inner Light, http:// fellowshipoftheinnerlight.com or to your favorite charity.

Robert touched the lives of many and he is dearly loved by his many friends. We now bid Robert farewell as he embarks upon his new life on the other side of the veil dancing with the Angels.

I was a caregiver for Mr. Krajenke and he was a wonderful and sweet person. Always had a smile on his face, and always had an amazing attitude. I'm very grateful for the opportunity I had to meet him

Bob was a friend that goes back some 75 years. I'm not surprised at his success but what I remember most is"Krajenke, hard to spell easy to deal with" RIP Bob you will surely be missed.

Robert,
Only through your Trilogy, "Edgar Cayce´s Story of the Bible", do I know of you. But reading through it twice increased my love for my Bible, for the miracle of humans and our eternal lives, for Edgar Cayce´s readings, and Life´s work,
and even more Love for your and your published trilogy who brought my Bible to such life first reading the trilogy at home alone, that I cannot help but also love you. And when our Edgar Cayce Monday Night read and discussed the trilogy each Monday night, I felt transported to those times with those Biblical people. And my love as already described increased even more. Thank you dear on for living an exemplary life that touched my life, heart, and soul so deeply with profound Love.
