Born February 9th, 1946, died unexpectedly of pneumonia on February 4th, 2025 at age 79.
Loving and faithful husband and best friend of Patricia (nee Peterson) for 49 years. Preceded in death by baby Timothy James on February 4th, 1978 and Lisa Ann on December 12th, 1979. Only son of Lucy and Otto Kiefert. 17th son-in-law of Ethel and Francis Peterson.
Bob retired from Square D Company where he worked as a printing press supervisor. He was a graduate of Francis Jordan H.S. and attended Marquette University. He was a proud US Army Veteran who served in Germany from 1965-1968. He enjoyed collecting stamps, coins, trains, cars, Tiffany Lamps, porcelain dolls...you name it!
Bob always put God first and never hated anyone; he was a friend to everybody and a quiet, peaceful man. He couldn't keep his eyes off of God's children, and knew they loved him back. He served as an altar boy at Christ King Church and Mount Mary College from the age of 10 to 19 years old.
Visitation Monday, February 10th, 2025 at 10 AM at St. Rita Catholic Church, 2318 S. 61st St., West Allis, followed by the Mass of Christian Burial at 11 AM. Interment at Mt. Olivet Cemetery.
Bob went to see the God he loved all his life!
Until we meet again!
"May the Angels lead you into Paradise."
