Robert L. Hurst of Kerrville, TX, passed away Saturday, January 17, 2004, at the age of 63. He was born January 31, 1940 in Kansas City, MO to Herbert and Alice Hurst. Bob married Barbara Park in Kansas City and they have two children, Cyndi McFalls of League City, TX and Allen Hurst of Albuquerque, NM. They traveled extensively overseas while he was in the armed services, and later when he was a Branch Chief at USDA in Washington, D.C. Bob attended Center High School in Kansas City and earned his bachelor's degree from Central Missouri State College. Bob and Barbara moved to Kerrville, TX after retiring. He is survived by Barbara, Cyndi and Allen. Bob has two brothers, Steve Hurst and Jimmy Hurst and two sisters, Barbara Rader and Kitty Talkington, all in the Kansas City area. He is also survived by four grandchildren, Rob, Kitty, Aaron and Ariel, and many wonderful nieces and nephews. Bob left many friends in Kansas City, Washington, D.C. and Kerrville. He will be especially missed by his Thumper friends and those who shared his enthusiasm for computers and collecting military miniatures. The family will honor Bob's memory in an informal gathering of family and friends on Saturday, January 24, from 4-8 p.m. at the Park Place Hotel located at I-435 and Front Street. In lieu of flowers, the family requests friends to send memorials to the Hill Country Youth Ranch, PO Box 67, Ingram, TX 78025 or the charity of your choice.
