Robert Lee "Bob" Osborne

Robert Lee "Bob" Osborne, 87, of Marion, Indiana, entered his eternal rest on Friday, August 27, 2021, at Lutheran Hospital in Fort Wayne. Bob was born on July 13, 1934, to the late J. Russell and Rhea Osborne. He married Linda King on August 26, 1960, in Ohio. They were able to celebrate their 61st anniversary the day before he passed. Bob worked for RCA for many years, and then worked for Marion Utilities until his retirement in 1997. He was a member of the First Church of the Nazarene in Marion. A man of quiet strength and deep faith, Bob was rarely in the spotlight. He enjoyed family time, preferring to just be a part of it all. He will be missed by all. Robert is survived by his wife, Linda; four daughters, Edythe (Harv) Lyon, Lutz, FL, Robin (Bruce) Kennedy, Clarksville, TN, Teresa (Jeff) Springer, Marion, and Rita (Patrick) Pinkerton, Marion; seven grandchildren, Kylie (Brad) Rivard, McKenzie (Matt) Wendler, Lauren (Austin) Armstrong, Leah Kennedy, Katie Springer, Jonathan Pinkerton, and James (Sydney) Pinkerton; five great-grandchildren, Annylise Rivard, Addyson Veit, Wyatt Veit, Andre Rivard, and Raelynn Pinkerton; and sister, Catherine Parks, Muskegon, MI. He was preceded in death by his parents, J. Russell and Rhea, and two brothers, Charles R. and William H. Osborne.
