Robert Hitchell Obituary
With overwhelming sadness we share the sudden passing of our husband, dad, and pop: Bob Hitchell. With indescribable joy and peace that passes understanding we know that we will see him soon. We are comforted to know that he fell asleep in his recliner waiting for the Blues game to start and woke up in the arms of Jesus. His servant’s heart, selfless love for others, fierce dedication to family, and faith in Jesus are his legacy.
Bob preferred not to have a service or memorial. If you would like to share a happy memory or what you loved about him we would love to read those as comments here.
