Robert Marvin Kirkwood

August 4, 1938 - May 13, 2022

KIRKWOOD, ROBERT (BOB) MARVIN 8/4/1938 - 5/13/2022 Robert (Bob) Marvin Kirkwood (age 83) has gone home to be with his Lord Jesus Christ. Now if you were to ask how he is, he certainly would say, "I'm fantastic." Bob was born in Warren, Ohio on August 4, 1938 to Eileen Rudolph Kirkwood and Roland Andrew Kirkwood. He moved to Jacksonville at age six. Bob spent eight years in the Army Reserves. He drove semi trucks for more than 40 years, before retiring at age 65. Never met a stranger and loved to talk with everyone. He was a drummer and played in some local bands when he was younger, then played in church for a number of years. During the past few years he enjoyed working as a drum detailer with his son at Clark's Music Center. Bob enjoyed going to church and was a faithful member of Agape' Christian Church. He leaves behind his wife of 58 years, Rita Flurry Kirkwood; daughters, Peggie Ferguson (Nicholas), Donna Karampatsos (Rick); sons, Robert Scott Kirkwood (Joni) and Gordon Clark Kirkwood (Lisa); seven grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren. Bob is survived by one sister, Delores Murray (Michael). He was predeceased by his mother and father and two sisters, Alice Rhodaback and Helen Watson. A private celebration of life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers you may donate to Bouquets of Kindness (www.bouquetsofkindness.org ), Bob's favorite charity, where he has volunteered in the past.
