Robert Wayne Knorr, our beloved father, husband, granddaddy, brother and so much more passed away June 13, 2019, leaving a hole in our hearts. Born December 6, 1940 to Gerald and Helen Knorr in Denver, Colorado, Bob lived a happy and active 78 years. Bob’s greatest joy, and his deepest dedication, was to his family, especially his wife of 55 years Roberna “Bobbie” Lou Harper. He dearly loved his children Michele and John and the true apple of his eye, his granddaughter Sarah. There was no game, no practical joke nor earnest effort he would not conceive and carry out in order to bring them happiness.
A life-long Coloradan, Bob graduated with a B.A. in History from Colorado State College in Greeley in 1964. A teacher for 32 years with Littleton Public Schools, Bob reveled in history, and always kept up with current affairs by reading two newspapers every day. Bob developed a special bond with many of his fellow teachers, but none closer than that with Larry Snyder and his wife Lorna. “Aunt and Uncle” to their children, Bob and Bobbie mourned the passing of these greatest of friends in recent times.
Bob worked hard to provide for his family, working two jobs for many years, often as a night-time truck driver.
