Robert "Bob" Lohman passed away February 2, 2026, in Florida.

Bob was a man with a quick wit and a twinkle in his eye, always ready with a joke.  His humor paired with a steady work ethic and a generous heart, made him someone people naturally gravitated toward.

Bob spent his life as a dedicated beekeeper tending his hives with patience and pride.   He had a lifelong love of cars – especially Corvettes – and could talk engines and models with anyone who shared the passion.  A talented woodworker, he crafted beautiful furniture over the years, including hand-built beds for each of his grandchildren.  Gifts made with love and meant to last.  He liked things neat, clean and just so, and he never turned down a good burger.

Bob is survived by: his wife of 65 years, Marlene; children, Lynn (Nancy), Brian (Cindy) and Dorianne (Gary); nine grandchildren; ten great grandchildren; sister, Phyllis Auble; sisters-in-law, Joyce Lohman, Kathi Strahl and Donna Strahl.

Bob was preceded in death by: his parents, Melvin and Thelma Lohman; brother, James Lohman; sister, Arlene Gruette.

A celebration of Bob's life will be held at 1 PM, Saturday, May 2, 2026, at New Era Bible Church, 5308 South Oceana Drive, New Era, Michigan 49446.
