Robert Joles Obituary

Robert "Bob" Joles, 79, formerly of the Akron area, passed from this life on January 8th in Pros-pect, Kentucky. Bob was a graduate of Kenmore High School and the University of Akron. His career as a mechanical engineer took him and his wife, Mary and sons, Rob and Pat to live in many places over the years, including England and Italy. No matter where he lived, Bob was forever a Browns fan! No formal memorial service is planned at this time. However, at Bob's request, a "Scots/Irish wake" to celebrate his life will be held at a future date to be determined. In lieu of flowers, if so desired, a donation may be made in his name to the Kentucky Humane Society, 241 Steedly Dr., Louisville, KY 40214 (www.kyhumane.org/donate).

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

Mary: So sorry to hear of Bob's passing. I am not sure if you remember me, but I worked with Bob and the Quality Control Department for many years at ATR. Bob and Bill Couch were wonderful coworkers and the best bosses that I had during my 30 years at ATR. My prayers to you and your family.
