Robert Dearing Obituary
65, passed away on June 7, 2020 from pancreatic cancer. Perfectionist, tenderheart, great husband, father and friend.

A celebration of Robert's life will be held in the fall. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Robert's name to the Tucson Cacti and Succulent Society.

Just now heard about Bob a year-and-a-half after his passing. He was a remarkable individual, the most brilliant mechanic imaginable, an intrepid amateur horticulturalist, and a loving father and husband. I always especially enjoyed his wonderful, wry smile and quirky sense of humor. A rare and special person who is deeply missed by all who knew him. Rest In Peace, Robert.
