Arthur Robbel Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Jowett Funeral Home and Cremation Service & Reception Center - Port Huron on Jan. 16, 2026.
Arthur Wilham Robbel age, 64, of Rock, Michigan passed away on January 4, 2026. He was born March 28, 1961, in Marine City, Michigan to the late Helga Parker and Robert Robbel.

He will be remembered as a strong-willed, independent man who lived life on his own terms, valued skill, hard work, and good company. A master-certified diesel mechanic, Arthur dedicated his career to keeping engines running strong. He worked for Ford and several large truck repair shops, where his knowledge and work ethic earned him deep respect.

Outside of work, Arthur found joy in the outdoors and working with his hands. He enjoyed fishing, hunting, amateur gunsmithing and restoration work, working on vehicles, and spending time with friends. Whether in a shop, by the water, or outdoors, he was happiest doing what he loved.

Arthur is survived by his son, Tyler (Jamie) Robbel, grandson, Xander Robbel, brother, Robert Robbel II, half-sister, Yvonne Moray, nephews, Mike (Yvonne) Robbel and Robert Robbel III; and many generations of cousins, nieces, nephews, and good friends who will carry his memory forward. He was preceded in death by his parents, Helga Parker and Robert Robbel.

Arthur's life was one of resilience, independence, and loyalty. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him.

Memorial Services will be held at a later date.
