Robert Holcomb

Robert Eugene Holcomb, age 74, of Converse, Texas passed away suddenly at home on Thursday, September 3, 2020. Robert was born and raised in Linton, Indiana until he was called to serve his country in the United States Navy. Serving valiantly, during the Vietnam conflict, where he earned the Bronze Star along with other citations, he came home to work for his country for 24 years. He worked as a Logistic Specialist for Lockheed-Martin and Flight Safety until his retirement in 2014.

Those who knew Bob, will always remember how kind and loving he was. He loved to see and talk to family and friends, travel, fish and loved to cook and was very committed to family. He enjoyed his weekly trips to Paul the, “Tomato Man,” and Granzine’s Meat Market.

There will be a private viewing for family and a Memorial Service will be held at a later date.
