Robert H. Meyer, age 85 of Louisville passed away peacefully with family at his side on Saturday, January 18, 2025.
Bob retired as an Electrician and was well respected within his trade for his demeanor and knowledge of his craft. He loved to tinker with projects and was naturally inquisitive-always searching to figure out how things worked. Bob always had to have something to do and could not sit still. He was a Parishioner of Holy Family Catholic Church and led an active social life that revolved around family, friends and his brothers at the IBEW Local 369 Union Hall. Golfing was his favorite pastime, playing often with his family who affectionately referred to him as the "World's Best Average Golfer."
He leaves behind to cherish his memory: his son, Steven Meyer; daughter, Julia Ironside (Scott); daughter, Monica Meyer Klein (Philip A); and grandchildren, Victoria, Olivia, Jack, Ella, Will, and Eli. Bob was preceded in death by his wife, Cecilia Ann Meyer; parents, August and Johanna Meyer; and sisters, Helen Foster and Johanna Meyer.
A Funeral Ceremony will be held at 1PM on Friday, January 24, 2025 from the Chapel of Ratterman & Sons Funeral Home. Interment will follow at Calvary Cemetery. Visitation will be from 10AM until the service begins.
Expressions of sympathy may be made to Holy Family Catholic Church.
