Robert Creamer Obituary

Published by Legacy on May 8, 2025.
Robert "Bob" Creamer
Age 64 of West Saint Paul (formerly of Inver Grove Heights)
Born September 14, 1960, and died unexpectedly on April 29, 2025. Bob is preceded in death by his parents, William and Marlene Creamer. He is survived by his beloved wife and best friend, Karen Creamer; his son, Bryan (Diamond) Creamer; and his sister, Mary (Dave) Dunn. He is also survived by his special nephew and nieces: Shawn (Kayla) Seerup, Shannon (William) Lechko, and Kelsey Seerup (Isaac). Bob's love extended to his many grandnieces, grandnephews, and great grandnephew, each of whom held a special place in his heart.
Bob lived a life of long-term sobriety and was deeply involved in the AA community, where he made hundreds of cherished friendships. The ripple effects of his kindness, humor, and support will continue to keep his memory alive for generations. Bob was born to laugh, and he could make a lifelong friend in a single conversation. With a twinkle in his eye and a quick question about where you grew up or what school you went to, he'd soon uncover mutual friends or shared connections. It was his gift to make everyone feel known and welcomed.
He had a joyful smile that touched everyone, an infectious laugh, and an unmatched ability to bring joy to all those lucky enough to be near him. Bob was truly a great man - deeply loved, profoundly missed, and fondly remembered by all who knew him.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Friday, May 16th at 10 AM with an hour visitation prior at the Church of the Assumption (51 7th St W, Saint Paul, MN 55102). A luncheon will follow mass.

I´ll always cherish the memories of going to concerts with Bob and how we could talk for hours about music. Whenever I needed a truck to haul something, Bob was always here with the smile on his face ready to help us. We will dearly miss him.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the family.

I am so very sad to learn of Bob's passing. I met him at Cenex when he worked in the Print Shop. He was one of the most friendly, caring, kind men I've ever been privileged to know and call a friend. He was funny and also loved to laugh. I hope Bryan and Karen find comfort in having him as long as they were blessed to have him. God bless you and may he rest in peace and may perpetual light upon him. +JMJ+

Karen and Bryan: I am so very sorry to hear the news of Bob´s passing. He always had a smile on his face which made me smile, no matter how I was feeling.

He will be dearly missed. Hang onto the memories. I know I will. Prayers for you during this very difficult time.
