Robert Kirsch Obituary
Family-Placed Funeral Notice
ROBERT I. KIRSCH On Wednesday, November 9, 2005, our world became smaller as Robert (Bob) Kirsch passed away at the age of 47. Bob was a beloved husband, caring son, brother, nephew, uncle, cousin, friend and co-worker. Bob was big-hearted. Always putting others before himself, he used his quick wit to bring joy to all. His caring and giving were obvious to all that came to know and love him. As a Florida State University graduate, he was a loyal Seminole. Bob was a longtime Florida Power and Light employee, making many friends in the various departments he worked in. He was survived by his loving wife Mary Kirsch, father Herbert Kirsch, brother Phillip (Sonny) Kirsch, father and mother-in-law Timothy and Kuan Connell along with numerous aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins and friends. Bob was predeceased by his mother Rose Kirsch. Graveside services will be held at Forest Hills Memorial Park, Palm City, FL on Friday (TODAY), November 11, 2005 at 11:00AM. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the United Way of Palm Beach County and/or The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation.

Bobby was not only my cousin, but a wonderful friend and peer whom I spoke with nearly daily. We traveled to so many family events and we joked about FSU vs. UNC (especially basketball), his love of Mary, his dad Herbie and our extended family. He was a true family man, full of character, love of life and enjoyed people as much as anyone I know. Bobby will be missed by all of us, he was a treasure and a memnory which I will hold dear. We miss you Bobby for you made our lives and our world a better place to enjoy. Love, cousins: robert, connie, jason & eliot

There will never be another Bob,He is truly missed at the gym. I ran today and couldn't get him off my mind. His running buddy was all by himself, how very sad. Bob was a wonderful person and an inspiration to us all.

To Bob's family:
Please accept my sincere condolences. I've known Bob for many years at FPL. He is truly a great guy in all respects. Always had a smile and a great positive outlook. I will miss seeing him.
I wish I can offer you words of comfort during this painful time. The truth is no words ever seem adequate enough to help ease one's grief over a loved one's passing. But please know that I'll be praying for you during this most difficult time. I pray that your faith in God will help give you strength and courage and the comfort to know that Bob is in a much better place.
God Bless You,
