Robert Fuchs Obituary

Bob Fuchs, a beloved and respected presence in Carmel Valley for almost four decades, passed away unexpectedly. He served as a U.S. Air Force pilot, excelled in commercial real estate, and made significant contributions as a community activist and dedicated Rotarian. He was a devoted husband, father, "dog father," and grandfather. In all his roles, he embodied unwavering dedication, integrity, and service. Bob's vibrant life and enduring legacy can be honored on Legacy.com (Robert Thomas Fuchs) or via https://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/legacyremembers/robert-fuchs-obituary?id=54359887. His absence leaves a profound void, and he will be deeply missed.

Bob and I were good friends for many years. He was the primary lending source for my real estate development business while he lived in Portland. His attention to detail help greatly in reducing risks on projects Columbia Mortgage financed.
We had many common interests. Both of us were Vietnam era military combat pilots before we knew each other. We did fly together in small aircraft a few times when he lived and worked in Portland. One time we went backpacking into the Jefferson wilderness area. The idea was to catch some trout but had to give up due to weather. The eyelets on our rods kept freezing up.
He was extremely family oriented and hearing about his loved ones was always enjoyable. Over the years we kept in contact with Bob visiting when he was in town. I miss Bob and pray for him and his family.

Occasionally in our journey through life, we meet a few special individuals who choose their commitments not by the amount of time, effort or energy required, but instead by the rightness of the undertaking. And once convinced of that rightness, these exceptional individuals are "all in", 200%.

Such was my experience with Bob. Among his many accomplishments, he was a leader of the community effort to reduce the original One Paseo development proposal to a scale more appropriate for our community. Bob devoted endless hours to researching all of the adverse impacts of the proposal, then educating the community through a number of compelling presentations. His "above and beyond" efforts were key in winning the more appropriate project approval we all benefit from today.

As a financing professional, Bob was the same committed partner. The more challenging a project's financeability, the more energy and creativity Bob brought to bear to make it a reality. I'd listen to his ideas, not because I cared about the project, but because Bob's earnestness and enthusiasm were just that irresistible. I'm confident that anyone who worked alongside him, both professionally and in his Rotary projects experienced the same passionate commitment.

Bob was one of those rare individuals who made a lasting difference in the lives of so many others, and we were indeed fortunate to have him with us as long as we did.
