He loved and was loved as: Grandpa Bob to Madison, Mackenzie, Emery, Oliver, Annie, Elsie, and another baby girl on the way; uncle to Geoff, Garrett, Ally, Grant, Connor, Tyler, Manny, Mahala; son-in-law to Ron "Moe" Meinen; brother-in-law to Ron Meinen & Gene Karlen, Robb & Tawnya Meinen, Gary & Kimberlee Meinen; "brother" to Judee Romeo; cousin to Jerri Ann, Debbie, Tommy, Steven, and Susan.
He was preceded in his passing by his father Robert Gloceri, mother-in-law JoAnn Meinen, and cousin Donna.
Bob was a man of consistent kindness, steadfast love, and friendship to everyone he met. He was an especially devoted father and solid rock to his daughter, Jamie. Ecstatic to be Colleen's husband, he loved saying Yes! to adventures with her. Bob treasured his time visiting family and traveling the world - exploring Italy, France, Germany, Austria, and even tiny Lichtenstein, cruising the Caribbean with family and friends, troll hunting in Norway, trekking the Salkantay Trail to Machu Picchu in Peru and hiking the Swiss Alps near Gimmelwald, his favorite place in the world.He delighted in supporting his grandkids and nephews, taking them on fun adventures, and traveling for their sports tournaments, performances, and Grandparent Days.
He lived and worked with admirable discipline, always providing for those he loved as a CPA and CFO, and earned a masters degree in Biblical Counseling to better serve his church and community. So patient and willing to pour into those around him - from dramatic middle schoolers to the fellow men of his church homes, all benefitted from his wisdom and guidance.Passionate about sports, he would joyfully recount his big plays on his high school football team and his time rooting for the Chicago Bears, White Sox, Bulls, and Blackhawks - in fact, he witnessed Super Bowl, World Series and Stanley Cup wins in person.
Bob always had a place in his heart for cats, and they had a love for him, perhaps finding kinship in the quiet, self assured, and gentle side of Bob. We continue to imagine Bob with family gathered around the table, loading up his Chicago-style pizza with red pepper flakes, a smile never far from his face.He leaves behind a legacy of humble compassion and abundant generosity that will continue to ripple through the lives of his wife, siblings, children, grandchildren, and those who come after. The love of Jesus shined through him always. He will be dearly missed.
Abbondanza!
