Robert Randolph "Pete" Riddle, 79, was born November 22, 1946, to Freeman and Della Riddle. He passed away peacefully on December 26, 2025.
Robert retired from General Electric in 2002 after over 30 years. He was a proud member of the Milford Lodge #54 F&AM, where he was known as Master of the Flood in 1993. He was also a member of the Scottish Rite Valley of Cincinnati and the Order of Eastern Star.
He was a beloved father and grandfather whose life was dedicated to strength of character, love of the outdoors, and family, friends, and community. Robert found his greatest comfort along the water fishing-an enduring passion that brought him peace and joy.
He is survived by his children, Shannon Riddle and Robert Elijah Riddle; his grandchildren, Jessica, Matthew, Christopher, and Maygann; and his longtime partner, Darlene. He will be remembered for his steady presence, love of fishing, and the lasting impact he leaves on his family and friends. He will be cherished and dearly missed.
Friends and family may call on Thursday, January 1, 2026, in the Evans Funeral Home, Milford from 5-7PM with Masonic Memorial services at 7:00PM. Burial will be in the Riddle Cemetery, Rockcastle County, KY.
