Schrader Funeral Home and Crematory - Ballwin Obituary

Robb, Charles Lowry, passed away January 10, 2024 at home. He was 90 years old. He now joins his beloved wife, Jane (nee Lederle), and countless family and friends who are no doubt welcoming him. He leaves behind his children Patrick Robb (Peggy), Kelly Stuckenschneider (Joe), Nancy Singer (Scott Brown). Grandfather of Megan, Michael, Jennifer, Sean, Scott, Kathryn, and Caleb. Great grandfather of Addison, Liam, Ella, Finn, Emma, Lincoln, and Lily.


Charles was born in Novinger, MO July 31, 1933 to Jefferson and Ruth Robb (nee Shaw). Along with his siblings Rebecca and Richard, his family moved to Kirkwood, MO in 1941. He graduated from Kirkwood High School in 1951. He served in the U. S. Army and was assigned to guard the Panama Canal during the Korean War. He graduated from Mizzou with a degree in civil engineering in 1960 and married Jane that same year. He spent the entirety of his professional life working for MoDOT. Chuck never met a stranger and loved to spin a story with friends and family. He delighted in his grandchildren (whom he called "the magnificent seven") and his great grandchildren.

Peggy, I’m very sorry to hear of your father-in-law’s passing. May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

So sorry to hear of the passing of your father-in-law. My condolences to you and your family!! Prayers for all of you!!

Profound sympathies for your family! Chuck was an extraordinary person & will be missed by all who were blessed to have known him. He couldn’t have been more proud of Nancy, Kelly, & Pat. He adored all of you & his beloved Jane.
Condolences & prayers for all.

Charlie was one of the first people I met when I hired in at the highway department (he was located behind the main office in Kirkwood at the time). He was always fair, regardless of where you came from and I know he appreciated all those who worked for him. I also remember him from the credit union Christmas parties/annual meetings and he was always pleased to be remembered. My sympathies to all of you in this time of loss but so long as his story is shared, he will not be forgotten. Big...

Thanks for sharing your dad - he will be greatly missed and fondly remembered.

6 AM, every Sunday

Chuck will be greatly missed and fondly remembered. XO

Pat, Kelly and Nancy sorry for your loss. Chuck was a great friend and master at telling a funny story. I imagine he has already heard from my dad "Salix Babylonica".

Sorry for your loss Pat. Rest well, as your Dad is at peace.
