Robert E Powell, Jr

Bob Powell, of Hudson, OH, passed away on Tuesday, August 18, 2020.

He enjoyed his last day doing his favorite hobby, working in his garden, before a stroke took him suddenly from us.

Bob was the loving husband of Barbara (nee McCullough), caring father of Debbie LoConti (Dennis), Keith Powell (Deceased), David Powell (Diane), grandfather of Dawn LoConti, Dennis LoConti, Diana Krupyak (Chad), Karen Doolittle (Ricky), Kevin Powell, and Jason Powell, and adoring great grandfather of Lucas Krupyak and Sophia Krupyak.

Bob was born September 21, 1938 in Brookfield, OH to Robert and Helen Powell (nee Perkins). He graduated from Brookfield High School in 1956 before beginning his career in the grocery industry.

Having dated since High School, Bob and Barb celebrated their 62nd anniversary on February 14th. They started their life together in Masury, OH before moving to Hudson with their 3 young children in 1973. Bob was a loving father who taught his children patience and kindness through example.

After retiring in 2003, Bob enjoyed being outdoors in the garden and working on the car. He and Barb also loved spending time with family. All the grandchildren were lucky to spend quality time with Grandma and Grampa and enjoyed many sleepovers together. When away from family, Cruising was a favorite vacation. The Caribbean was a favorite place of their 13 cruises.

His was a life full of kindness and love that will live on in his family.

Please join us for visitation and celebration of life from 10-11:30 on Friday, August 21, 2020. Unfortunately, due to Covid-19, we will be having a private family service at 11:30.
