Robert F. "Bobby" Kluth

Robert F. "Bobby" Kluth - 78 of Brunswick, Ohio, entered into Heaven on November 9, 2025. Born on September 24, 1947.

Bobby is survived by his wife Ginger Kluth of 55 years; his daughters Kelly and Niki; his sons-in-law Greg Clement and Jason Zak; his grandsons Manny, Jonah, and Elijah; and countless family and friends who have a Bobby story they'll be telling for years.

Papa. Husband. Father. The Most Present Man You'd Ever Meet.

If you knew Bobby, you have a story. Probably a funny one. Because Bobby - who loved being a soldier so much his nickname was John J. Rambo, who could deadpan a Barney Fife impression that would make Don Knotts jealous, who drove around Mapleside Farms in a six-seater Ranger with a police light on top calling himself "Security" - understood something most people never quite get: life is meant to be lived, right now, right where you are.

When you were with Bobby, you had all of him. Not the version checking his phone. Not the guy thinking about tomorrow or rehashing yesterday. When you were having a beer on his back deck, or sitting at Thanksgiving dinner, or headed to some exotic location on a plane - Bobby was there. Fully. That kind of presence is rare. That kind of presence is a gift.

Bobby loved Jesus. He loved people. He loved being a father to his daughters Kelly and Niki, and a devoted husband to his wife Ginger. But most of all, he loved being Papa to his three grandsons - Manny, Jonah, and Elijah. If you ever saw Bobby with those boys, you saw a man in his element.

For the past 15 years, Bobby found his calling at Mapleside Farms. His official title? Sanitary Engineer/Security. His favorite job? Doing the trash. He took pride in it. He also loved giving tours during festivals and concerts, making sure every single person knew that Kelly, his daughter, owned the farm.

Bobby Kluth was the softest strong guy you'd ever meet. Rambo with a gentle heart. Security with a tour guide's soul. A meticulous planner who forgot his luggage. A man who understood that the best way to honor God is to love people well, to show up fully, to laugh when life drops a gift on your head.

Bobby "Klutch" wasn't one in a million. He was one of a kind.

Celebration of Life will be held from 4-8 p.m., Monday, November 17, 2025, at The Barn at Mapleside Farms, 294 Pearl Rd., Brunswick. Funeral services at Waite Funeral Home, 3300 Center Rd, Brunswick - 10 am, Tuesday November 18, 2025 - interment will follow at Eastlawn Memory Gardens, Brunswick.
