Robert “Rob” Cherone was a devoted father, loving husband, and a loyal friend. Rob was married to Emily (nee Zawikowski) and was a father to Colton, Caellum, and Ciaran. He was a son to Rick and Barb Cherone. A brother to Ricky (Ann) Cherone and an uncle to Hailey & Hannah. He was a brother-in-law to Evan (Cory) Zawikowski by name, but a true brother to him in life. He is survived by aunts, uncles, cousins, his mother-in-law Colleen (Michael) Zawikowski, and countless friends.
Rob loved trying new beers, rugby, fishing, baseball, basketball, and football. He loved bad movies and making people laugh. He always thought of others first and made sure to fill their cup before his own. Rob left a positive impact on everyone he met and we are better for having had him in our lives.
To honor the family’s wishes, a private service will be held. In lieu of flowers the family has asked that a donation be made to The Rob Cherone Memorial Fund at BMO Harris Bank, set up to assist with education for Colton, Caellum, and Ciaran.
