Robert J. Stamm Of Plainwell, Michigan, died
Monday, September 11, 2006
at Rose Arbor Hospice of kidney cancer. But because of the life, death and resurrection of his Savior Jesus Christ, he was resurrected to Heaven for eternity. We picture him in his perfect body being lovingly welcomed at Heaven’s gate by his parents, Ike and Bea, grandparents, John and Stella, Carol’s parents, Claus and Nell Bos, a host of others who have gone on before, and being enveloped by the radiance of his Holy God.

I worked with Bob while a court security officer at the U.S. Courthouse in Grand Rapids. I have fond memorires of him, a devoted Christian, Republican and patriot. In fact, he was my favorite person in the entire courthouse. He loved reading the USA Today Newspaper, and to this day, think of him when I see that paper. Rest is peace Bob, my friend.
