Robert " Bob" Curtin

Robert James Curtin passed away at the age of 90. He was born February 2, 1930, in Madison, the son of Robert and Marian (Daggett) Curtin. He was united in marriage to Marijo Lynaugh on December 11, 1965 in Madison.

To his grandchildren Cody, Erin, Jamison, Paige, and R.J. he gave his best.

To his children Coleen, Casey, Kathi, and Kerri he was Dad and led the way.

To his wife Mary, there was love until the end.

To his brother Dick (Joan) and sister Carole he was an inspiration.

With his parents Robert Sr. and Marian, he is now reunited.

To his son-in-law’s David, Jim, and John he was wise.

For Jenifer and Lisa, he wishes he had more time.

When he worked, he worked hard and when he gave, he gave his all.

When he carved, his hands gave horses the land, eagles the wind, and saber- toothed tigers the forest.

Bob was a proud member of Sheet Metal Local 18 for over 70 years, and proud member of the 32nd Division of the Army National Guard.

On Tuesday, April 14th, 2020, with his family at home Robert James Curtin passed away at peace with a tear, a shot of whiskey, and an Irish flag.

Bob will not be forgotten.

Bob requested that his wife, children, grandchildren, brother, sister, nephews, cousins, and friends raise a glass in celebration of his life, which will be planned for a future date.

The family would like to thank Agrace Hospice Care, especially Dana and Carmen.

In lieu of flowers, please consider making memorials to Agrace Hospice Care (agrace.org), Alzheimer’s Assn (ALZ.org), or St James School, Madison WI in Bob’s name.
