Robert William Dehner, "Sammy" age 74, of Bellevue, KY, passed away on January 28, 2024. Born on April 29, 1949, in Dayton Ky. He was the son of the late Robert Dehner Sr. and Ruth Scnneider Dehner.

Sammy, as he was affectionately known, was a kind-hearted and easy-going individual who loved to have fun. He had a passion for travel and enjoyed exploring new places. Sammy was also an avid bowler and achieved the impressive feat of scoring two "300" games in his lifetime. His beautiful singing voice was a true gift, and he particularly enjoyed crooning the songs of Frank Sinatra.

In his career, Sammy worked as a sheet metal worker in commercial construction for many years. Later in life, he transitioned to sales, where he found success and fulfillment. Sammy's dedication and hard work were evident throughout his professional journey.

When he wasn't working, Sammy had a wide range of hobbies that brought him joy. He loved bowling, golfing, and playing horse shoes. Additionally, he had a passion for travel and enjoyed visiting casinos. These activities provided him with countless cherished memories.

Sammy will be deeply missed by his surviving family members, including his sisters Patricia Dehner, Bonnie Nukman, Nancy Dehner, Shelley Payne, his brother John Dehner and life-partner Phyllis Shields He was preceded in death by his father, Robert Dehner Sr., and his mother, Ruth Scnneider Dehner.
