Robert Londerholm Obituary

Colonel Robert Carl Londerholm, USAFR (Ret) Colonel Robert Carl Londerholm, USAFR (Ret), the former Attorney General of Kansas, passed away peacefully at Sequoia Hospital in Redwood City, CA on December 18, 2015. A graduate of the University of Kansas with a PhD from its School of Law, Bob also served as the Asst. Atty. General and as the Director and General Council for both the Kansas Corp Commission and the Kansas Dept of Revenue before going into private practice as an attorney specializing in elder care. During his distinguished career, he also served at various times as a Chairman on the Federal Home Loan Bank Board, Kansas Racing Commission, Blue Valley School Board (Chairman), Blue Valley Fire District and with the March of Dimes. Early on he also taught law classes at KU and UMKC and later Sunday School at the Church of the Resurrection. Col. Londerholm is survived by his loving wife of 63 years, Beverly Jane, his four devoted children Robert Jr (Deloris), David (Sue), Stephen, and Katherine (Randall) Lipps, sixteen very special grand children, Tom, Rob 111 (Staci), Stephen (Jenny), Drew, Jonathan, Kevin Londerholm, and ten others, four precious great grand children, Preslee, Kyson, Luka and Hina. An avid history buff, voracious reader and spirited adventurer, Bob loved sharing his knowledge, traveling the world, taking cruises and having memorable experiences with cherished family and friends - especially with his grand kids in Branson, MO and at the country home he shared with Bev for 47 yrs in Johnson County. Wise, kind, funny and generous, Bob will be greatly missed and fondly remembered by all who knew him. Luvya, G-dad A celebratory service to honor Bob will be held Saturday, April 16th at 1:00 pm in the Chapel at the Church of the Resurrection at 13720 Roe in Leawood, KS. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations be made to the charity of ones choice or to KU Breast Cancer Center, 2330 Shawnee Mission Parkway, Suite 11, Mail Stop 5015, Westwood, KS 66205.

Bev, I'm sorry I didn't get a card in the mail. But, you know how much I loved Bob. He will be so missed by everyone. I know he is in a better place and when my live comes to an end, I expect to join him in the heavenly kingdon.
