Robert A. Straube

Fantastic artist, all around great person, dedicated employee, and good friend! Missing you Bob on the anniversary of your trip "Home"! Rick & Dani Osewalt

I would like to say that I am sadden to hear of Mr. Straube's passing in 2006. I only met him once back in 1994 when he painted a beautiful water color of Cathedral Rock of Sedona Arizona. I worked for Deluxe for 16 years and had taken a bank from Phoenix to Shoreview and Bob had painted this picture. The picture was painted for the bank but the bank could not accept it so my manager suggested I keep it. What a treasure to have this watercolor in my office all these years. I just moved and...

Hard to believe it’s been 14 years since Bob went ”Home” to that big art studio in the sky. Dani and I think of Bob often, mostly when we observe a stunning landscape or see a beautiful watercolor. He left art memories in many homes and businesses throughout Minnesota and the rest of the country. RIP Bob Straube!

To: Bob's family & friends

Bob will always remain in our hearts, and we are continually reminded of him & you whenever we look at his artwork prominently displayed in our home. Bob touched many...and continues that touch forever--a great legacy. We hope you are well and enjoying life as much as Bob did...Always the Best...Shirley & Bob Dourgarian

We were so surprised to hear of Bob's passing.Being neighbors to the Straube's for 15 years was the best experience that Doug and I and our children Jenny and Nathan cherish. Many, many fun times that we will keep close to our heart.

We had our 50th class reunion for the Class of '56 from Lyons Township High School the weekend prior to Bob's death. He was missed by those of us who gathered to see each other for the first time in many years. May your faith sustain you in your time of grief.

Dear Betty & Family:
Bob was the most talented of all our group of friends at So. Ill. U.
At times, he was the bulwark of sanity, kept us out of serious trouble, and guided us back on the right track.
He and his talent will be missed by all.

Dear Betty and Family:

So sorry to hear about Bob's passing on. I always enjoyed working with him at my gallery in White Bear Lake, and people loved his still life paintings. He left many memories with many, many people, and will be missed by the art community. God bless you and your family.
