Robert Harvey Erdmann “Bob”

April 17, 1940 – September 1, 2023

Born in Milwaukee, WI to Harvey and Ruth (nee Hilty) Erdmann on April 17, 1940.  Born to Eternal Life on September 1, 2023 at the age of 83. Devoted husband for over 55 years to Trudy. Cherished father to Collene and Ronald (Nicole). Proud grandfather to Leanna. Dear brother to Ronald (Lynda).  Also survived by nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends.

Bob worked in the Clerk of Courts division for Milwaukee County for over 30 years.  While he was retired, he studied at Martin Luther College and graduated in the first class of certified staff ministers.

Bob was a strong Christian man who was loved and respected for his tremendous faith.  He was very involved at St. John’s as the Sunday School director for many years. He also displayed his God-given talents as a member in both the church choir and the Lutheran Chorale.

Bob was a sports fan and his favorite team was the Milwaukee Brewers.  He will be remembered by many for his sense of humor and punctuality. Bob will be dearly missed!

Family and friends will gather at St. John’s Ev. Lutheran Church, 6802 W. Forest Home Ave. on Fri. Sept. 15, 2023 from 9:30 AM until the time of the Memorial Service at 11:00 AM.

    Bob was a great inspiration as a Christian. His zeal for prayer and “The Word of God” was encouraging to others at St. John’s Lutheran Church.
    May the Lord of Peace and Comfort bless and be with you at the loss of Bob.

    Yours in Jesus Christ,
    Jeff Hendricks
