Robert Tenuta Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Robert "Bob" had health issues for several years which kept him from doing a lot of things that he loved to do like golfing, bowling, and attending car shows with several of his classics.
Bob was preceded in death by his mother, Rita (Charmeda) Tenuta; and father, Gene Tenuta. Rita owned Gracie's Grocery and Gene owned Gene's Hot Rod Shop, both on Main Street in Battle Creek. Bob joined the United States Army in 1966 during the Vietnam era and received an honorable discharge in 1968. He married, Cindy Spyker and had two sons, Rob and Toby, they survive. Bob worked for Grand Trunk Railroad and CN Railroad for over 32 years as a fireman, brakeman and conductor yard foreman. Bob loved the railroad, but was forced to retire in 2000.
