Robert R. Noe

Robert “Bob” Russell Noe, age 85 of Menasha, passed away at Oakridge Gardens on Friday, July 19, 2024. He was born in Oshkosh on September 20, 1938, to the late Carl and Celda (Weber) Noe.

Throughout his life, Bob embodied patriotism in every sense of the word. His unwavering dedication to his country and community served as a beacon of hope and unity for those around him. As a proud Green Beret in the United States Army, Bob exemplified courage and commitment from 1957 to 1961. Post-military service, he forged a successful career as a sales representative, spending years at Witco Corporation before retiring.

An active member of the Van Dyne Sportsmen Club, Bob found joy in camaraderie and the great outdoors. His love for family and friends knew no bounds, and he delighted in shared moments filled with travel, a good Friday night fish fry, and the simple pleasures of life, especially grocery shopping and cooking. Bob's spirit of generosity and warmth touched the hearts of many.

Bob is survived by his partner of 23 years, Cheryl Cheslock; children, Heidi (Brandon) Noe and Kathleen Rose; Cheryl’s children, Kris (Doug) Keyes and Don (Sue) Jungen; grandchildren, Madeline (Sebastian), Benjamin, Felix, Liam, and one great-grandson coming in December; niece, Christy (Rich) Poeschl.

In addition to his parents, Bob was preceded in death by his siblings, Gerald and Howard Noe, and Marlene Petri.

A memorial service for Bob will take place at Konrad-Behlman Funeral Home-Westside, 100 Lake Pointe Dr., Oshkosh, on August 20th at 11:00 a.m. Visitation will take place at the funeral home from 9:30 a.m. until the time of the service, followed by Military Honors. The burial will take place at Lake View Memorial Park after the luncheon.

A very special thank you to the staff at both Island Shores in Neenah and Oakridge Gardens in Menasha, for your wonderful care, allowing Bob to be comfortable for these past months.
