Robert E. "Kil" Kilpatrick

Learn many lessons from KILLER. Many about life in general from Tennis Team van rides to Federal League matches all over Stark County. He taught me a cut serve and backhand volley. We learned that tenacity and hustle can beat country club top spins and perfect backhands.

Mr. Kilpatrick was one of my teacher’s at Edison Jr High many many years ago (I graduated from Perry in 1988). I don’t remember many of my teachers from Jr High but I sure do remember Mr. Kilpatrick. He was a great teacher. He made learning a lot of fun. I remember one of the assignments he gave us, to write a parody of a song. I still remember my parody to this day, and the picture I drew to go along with it. Thank you, Mr. Kilpatrick! Rest In Peace!

He was my 10th grade english teacher. My favorite teacher ever. We had so many great times in his class. He also taught me how to respect others. How to let go of silly things. To focus on the good. Taught me how to calm myself when I would get angry and lash out. I am 52 yrs old and I think of him often. I am so very sorry for your loss. He will be forever loved and missed.

RIP Kil ❤

Thank you for being a great mentor, Tudor and friend. Love, Kim Johnson
