Robert H. "Bear / Poppa Bear" Schuster, age 70, passed away peacefully at his home on October 9, 2025.

He was deeply loved by his family and friends, who will forever remember his humor, strength, and kindness.

He is survived by his son, Henry Schuster, and Henry's wife, Tiffany Latta; his two cherished granddaughters, Madelyn and Delilah; Evelyn and her family; and his loving neighbor Trish.

Robert had a passion for fishing and was a proud collector of many things, always finding joy in the stories behind the treasures he gathered. His love for life's simple pleasures and his generous spirit made every moment with him memorable.

Robert will be remembered fondly as a devoted father, proud grandfather, and loyal friend. His memory and spirit-his "Poppa Bear" warmth-will live on in the hearts of all who knew him.
