Publish in a newspaper

In loving memory of Robert "Bob" Wall Sr., born on October 9, 1935, in Cincinnati, OH. He was the cherished son of the late Hollis and late Sadie Wall. Bob will be remembered as a devoted husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather who brought joy and laughter to all who knew him. He peacefully passed away on August 25, 2025, at the age of 89, leaving behind a legacy of love and cherished memories that will forever warm the hearts of his family.

Throughout his life, Bob exemplified the virtues of kindness and humor that touched the hearts of family and friends alike. He was the beloved husband of 48 years to Mary Wall. As a loving father, he is survived by his children, Robert (Sandy) Wall Jr., Teri (Dale) Schibi, Michael (Nancy) Wall, Dave (Patricia) Weisbach, and Jenni (Mark) Burgess. Bob was the proud grandfather of Peter (Kim) Schibi, late Clare Schibi, Hannah Schibi, Victoria Wall, Gabi Wall, Audrey Wall, Alison (Charles) Guy, Andrew Weisbach, Caroline (Mike) Gregoire, Natalie (Doug) Rudolph, and Naomi Keates. He also took great joy in being a great-grandfather to Grant Schibi, JT Schibi, Reed Schibi, Oscar Guy, Shea Guy, Hadley Gregoire, Leo Gregoire, Luke Rudolph, and Jade Keates. He is preceded in death by his siblings, Earl Wall, Wayne Wall, Howard Wall, Harry Wall and Mary Wall. Bob will forever hold a special place in the hearts of his family, and his memory will live on through stories filled with love and laughter.

Bob was an honored member of the Air National Guard until his retirement, he served his country with honor and maintained strong bonds with his fellow servicemen through monthly lunch gatherings. He enjoyed sharing stories, camaraderie, and the joy that friendship brings. As an avid supporter of Marquette and Belmont basketball teams, as well as the Cincinnati Reds, Bob embraced the joy of sporting events. He had a passion for golf, often found at Hillview Golf Course, where he delighted in finding golf balls to share with both friends and family. A true treasure hunter, he eagerly participated in garage sales, collecting coins, Snoopy figurines, and other knick-knacks, always finding delight in simple discoveries. His love for fishing on the lake, Monday dinners with his in-laws, and annual winter trips to Florida enriched his life and brought him great happiness.

A service to honor Bob's life will be held on Monday, September 15, 2025, at Frederick Funeral Home, 2553 Banning Rd., at 12:30 p.m. Friends and family are invited to gather in remembrance of a truly remarkable man whose spirit and warmth will continue to resonate in our lives. In lieu of flowers memorials may be made to Cincinnati Children's Research Hospital, PO Box 5202 Cincinnati, OH 45201 or Cincinnati and Hamilton County Public Library, 800 Vine St, Cincinnati, OH 45202.

Let us come together to celebrate Bob Wall, reflect on the joy he brought to us all, and find solace in the shared memories of a life well-lived.
