Robert May Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Browning Funeral Home - Evansville on Feb. 5, 2026.
Robert L. "Rob" May, 51, of Evansville, Indiana, passed away on Friday, January 30, 2026 at Ascension St. Vincent Evansville.

Rob was born in Evansville, Indiana on August 21, 1974. He was a member of the Indiana/Kentucky Local 4 Union for 15 years. Rob enjoyed spending time with family and friends and would drop anything at anytime to go help someone in need. He also loved going for long rides on his motorcycle anytime of the year, being outdoors, and tinkering with anything he could get his hands on.

He left us way to soon, leaving a huge hole in all of our hearts. Rob will be deeply missed.

Rob is survived by his longtime girlfriend of over 20 years, Jennifer Haire; their fur babies, Bear, Tinsel and Max; his mother, Terry Hebrard; a brother, Richard May (Jetina); several aunts, uncles, nieces, a great niece and nephew, cousins, and so many friends you can't even count.

Rob was preceded in death by his first fur baby, Lucky; his father, Ricky May; and grandmother, Margaret Wulff.

There will be no services held at Browning Funeral Home.
