Robert Schettig Obituary
Formerly of Franklin Township
Robert V. Schettig, age 78, passed away July 12, 2020, at his daughter's home surrounded by his family. He was born in New Brighton, Pa., on October 21, 1941, to the late Robert and Margaret Schettig (Seaburn).
He was a proud and loving husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather, who will be greatly missed by many. He proudly retired from St. Joe Lead in Monaca, Pa., after 30 years of dedicated service. While Bob spent all of his youth and working life with family and friends in Beaver County, he spent the last 20 years in Wyoming where he had many friends that he considered his family.
Robert is survived by his wife, Nancy Schettig (Mooney) of Franklin, Pa.; daughters, Renee (Tim) Oboczky of Madison, Ohio, and Robin Schettig of Monaca, Pa.; stepsons, Rick (Molly) Fezell of San Jose, Calif., Tim (Chris) Fezell of Punxsutawney, Pa., and Doug (Jenn) Fezell of Franklin, Pa.; grandchildren, Nicole Mooney, Samantha (Mike) Muller, Benjamin Retkofsky, Alexandria (Brian) Styers, and Andie, Kate, Charlie, Jackson, Benjamin, Nathan and Nicholas Fezell; great-grandchildren, Jayden and Sadi Retkofsky, Shawn and Cara Muller, Gunner Robert Styers, and Cameron Janectic; and brother, Donnie (Kim) Schettig of Boardman, Ohio. Robert also leaves behind a host of nieces, nephews, and cousins.
He was preceded in death by his parents and siblings, Cinda Smith and Gary Schettig.
