Robert's obituary

Robert Anderson, 72 of Streator, IL, passed away on March 9, 2021.

Bob was a force of nature, determined to provide for his family and give them the life he felt they deserved. His family meant more to him than anything else in the world, something he often mentioned. He was unendingly proud of his children, Brett, Lindsay, Leslie, and Bobby and always tried his best to support them.

Wife, Mary Anderson, has been the glue and the rock of the family. She spent every last minute with dad caring for his every need. She so selflessly cared for dad in every way imaginable and we love her so much. Mom was dad's EVERYTHING! She is an amazing woman and will help us to continue to keep his memories strong.

He has five beautiful grandchildren, Madison, Kevin, Milah, Quinn, Carson, and a new little one is on the way next month.

Dad was also passionate about woodworking and creating beautiful furniture for all of us and could often be found out in the garage tinkering with new ideas.

Anyone who knew him knew that he was the most loving father, grandpa, and husband a family could ask for.

The family requests that all flowers and cards are sent to 102 W. Ninth Street, Streator, IL 61364. There will be a private family service Sunday.
