Obituary of Robert L. Dillon

Robert (Bob) Dillon of Uniontown, OH died peacefully at home surrounded by his loving family on February 6, 2020. He was born on August 19, 1937 in Boomer, WV. He was preceded in death by his parents Louis and Elizabeth Dillon, son Scott Dillon, and sister Julia Dulabahn. He is survived by wife and soul mate of 58 years Judith Knotts Dillon, daughter Michele Moncrief (Paul), daughter-in-law Deborah Dillon; grandchildren Joshua Dillon (Ashley), Nicholas Dillon (Chelsea), Bridget Miller (Tyler), Adrienne Moncrief, Alexis Moncrief, Faith Dillon, Zachary Wooten; great grandchildren Gabe, Brody, and Sophia; sister Carolyn Huffman. He was employed as a diesel mechanic by P.I.E. Trucking (28 yrs) and a supervisor for Springfield Local School Transportation Department (18 yrs). He served honorably 6 years in the Ohio Army National Guard. He loved fiercely and lived his life intentionally for Jesus and his family. He could fix anything with a piece of chewing gum, rubber band or paperclip! He was the best storyteller, a talented musician and craftsman, and found his passion for singing in his later years.
