Robert Coulter Obituary
Phoenix - Robert Dean Coulter "Bob", 60, loving father and grandfather, passed away on April 13, 2018. Bob was born in Phoenix, Arizona on August 21, 1957 to Dean Coulter and Frances (Chadwick) Coulter, the last born of four children. He is survived by his two children; Bobby Coulter (Holly) and Sarah (Lee Koechig), three grandchildren; Hank, Kayley and Frances, his three siblings; Kathy (Stewart Smith), Susie (John Peck) and William Coulter "Bill" (Julie). Bob loved hunting, the outdoors, cars, trucks, motorcycles…pretty much anything with a motor. He was conservative politically, but could still enjoy absurdist humor, UFO documentaries and he loved Anime movies. He loved his family cabin in Greer, Arizona and telling stories about his wilder years. He called the Valley his home and always described a deep connection to the desert southwest. He'll be remembered for his sarcasm, his infectious laugh and his aviator sunglasses. Visitation will be held at 9:00 A.M. with a service at 10:00 A.M., Thursday, April 19, 2018 at Whitney & Murphy Funeral Home, 4800 E. Indian School Road, Phoenix. A Private Burial for family will be at St. Francis Catholic Cemetery.
