Robert Keyes Obituary
Bob was an Army veteran, serving in Germany, for a total of three years. He became an air traffic controller at the busiest airport in the world, O'Hare, where he retired in 2009. A lifelong Chicagoan, he was a diehard Cubs fan and witnessed the 2016 World Series win in Cleveland in person, along with many Bulls, Blackhawks and Bears games. He loved music and concerts, and was always on the dance floor or behind the microphone at karaoke. He was also a long-time runner, logging many miles with his dogs, Coach and Ginger, and later logging many more miles behind the wheel of the family's RV for summer vacations.
Please join us Saturday February 14, 2026 from 9-11am at Willow Funeral Home 1415 W. Algonquin Road Algonquin IL 60102 for a Memorial Visitation. A Memorial Service will begin at 11am.
