Robert A. Stratton, 58, of Fort Wayne, IN - known to friends and family as "Rob" - was born on December 28, 1966, in Janesville, WI. He passed away on December 1, 2025, at the Cleveland Clinic.
Retired from AT&T, Rob loved working with his hands, building outdoor furniture, and tackling projects around the house - no task was ever too big or too small. When he wasn't building or fixing something, he could usually be found enjoying anything related to cars. He was also an avid football and baseball fan, faithfully cheering on his Green Bay Packers and Chicago Cubs. Loved ones remember his quick wit, warm sense of humor, and joyous laugh. Game nights and backyard barbecues were among his favorite ways to gather and spend time with his closest friends.
Rob is survived by his loving wife, Angela Stratton (née Brimm); his mother, Esther Stratton; sister, Debra (James) Katzenmeyer; and nephew, Michael D. (Jennifer) Schaffner. He was preceded in death by his father, Terry Stratton.
He will be greatly missed and forever remembered.
Honoring Rob's wishes, there will be no services at this time. A celebration of life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the
American Heart Association or the National Kidney Foundation.
