Robert Stuhlman Obituary
Bob was predeceased by his parents and his youngest sister, Kathy.
He is survived by his wife, Susan Stuhlman, of 45 years, two children Brett and his wife Michelle of Virginia Beach, Gregory and his wife Madeleine of Atlanta, his grandchildren Carter, Avery, and Hayes, and his sister Leslie and her husband Jerry.
Bob served in the Navy for twenty-three years. His time flying helicopters brought him great joy. His career in education began as an instructor at the Air Force Academy. Upon retiring, he taught in the Virginia Beach School Division for 23 years.
He enjoyed participating in the boys' lives by coaching every single sport they played. After retiring from his teaching career, he spent many years fishing with his friends in the Virginia Beach Anglers Club.
A memorial service will be planned for early summer. In lieu of flowers, please consider a contribution to one of his favorite charities: The Naval Academy Alumni Association, Toys for Tots, or the Virginia Beach ASPCA.

I am deeply saddened by Bob's passing. We served together in HC-6 and HM-16. He was an outstanding officer and aviator, highly respected by all who knew him. My sincere condolences to Susan and family!

My deepest sympathy.
Bob was a great guy.....except during my plebe summer of 1969 when he was the upper class man in charge! .... I think he was just following orders since he was really a nice guy in disguise.
Seriously, he was a great friend and shipmate. It was my pleasure to have served with him in HC - 6 all those years ago.
To his lovely wife Susan and family, may God bless and comfort you in your loss.
