Robert Selewski Obituary

Robert Selewski
Robert "Bob" Ralph Selewski (May 17th, 1968) passed away in his sleep on the afternoon of December 20th. After a harrowing two-year battle with cancer, he found peace and love as he spent his final moments surrounded by close friends and family.
Bob was a pillar of his community, not only as the friendly neighborhood Schwan Man, but as an active force in charity and fundraising. He was a staple participant at the annual Midland Relay for the Life and contributed to several other charitable organizations. All who knew him recognized the light and laughter in his spirit, and in his heart was a bottomless well of love for his family. He will be sorely missed.
Bob is survived by his wife and angel Angela Selewski; parents Richard and Catherine Selewski; brother Richard (Lisa) Stone; children Lauren (Christopher LaMarche) Selewski, Christian Selewski, Josh (Melissa) O'Neal, Kyle (Melissa) O'Neal, and Jordon (Courtney Gladish) Butzin; and grandchildren Emily, Ethan, Aaron, Madison, Kennedy, Sonya, Addy, Jaydon, Jenna, and "Sweet Pea."
Visitation will be held at Ware Smith Woolever Funeral Home on December 27th from 2–4 p.m. and 6–8 p.m. A funeral to honor Bob's memory will be held at the Christian Celebration Center on December 28th, with a viewing at 1 p.m. and a service beginning at 2 p.m. Reception to follow immediately after.
