He earned many awards including Expert Marksman.

Robert was a wonderful husband, father, grandpa, great grandpa, great great grandpa, uncle, and friend to many. He was a man of great humor and much wisdom to share. Before losing his eyesight, he loved cooking, gardening, reading, tinkering, and fixing anything he could. Later in his life, he enjoyed listening to books on tape, sports on the radio, and hollering out "Yee-Haw!" for football scores and touchdowns. He loved and cherished every moment spent with loved ones.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Ray and Freda Stauffer, his loving wife, Kitty Stauffer, his brothers, and many others.

He is survived by his four married children: Debbie (and Paul) Padgett of Piedmont, South Carolina, Brenda (and Jonathan) Coody of Sunrise, Florida, Ken (and Julie) Stauffer of Westerville, Ohio, and Greg (and Judy) Stauffer of Ellenton, Florida. Kitty and Robert have 11 grandchildren, 12 great-grandchildren, 4 great-great-grandchildren, and his best doggie friend, Blue.

He will be greatly missed by his family and friends.

We welcome all who knew him to join us for a service Saturday at 10 a.m. at Moreland Funeral Home, 55 E. Schrock Road, Westerville, OH followed by a graveside service will be at Northlawn Memory Gardens with Military Honors.
