Obituary For Robert "Bob" Lee Duffeck

Robert "Bob" Lee Duffeck, age 84, passed away on Wednesday, March 2, 2022 surrounded by family. He was born on March 13, 1937 in Lena, Wisconsin.

He was a graduate of Lena High School, class of 1956. He later attended Marinette College where he obtained his Teaching Certificate, before beginning a varied career path that culminated as a Green Bay Metro Bus Driver in 1999.

Robert married Carol Kmecheck June 6th, 1959 at St. Michael's Church in Suring, Wisconsin.

Robert was a selfless man with a huge heart who would give you the shirt off his back. He was an avid collector and a jack of all trades. He enjoyed fishing, hunting, traveling, puzzles, playing cards and games with family & friends, and the Green Bay Packers. He had a wonderfully dry sense of humor, and was often heard using his own terms of endearment such as "frickin yo-yo" and "snicklefritz".

Robert is survived by his wife of 62 years, Carol Duffeck; his sister Delores Schleis; his daughters Colleen (Jim) Crawford and Connie Chastine; son Charles (Barb) Duffeck; son in law Robert Bender; grandchildren Jimi, Chandra, Kyle, Thomas, Stephanie, Jameson, Jonathan, Craig, and Nina; and great-grandchildren Peyton, Jaida, Savannah, Henry, Charlotte, Riley, Autumn, and Avery.

He was preceded in death by his daughter Carolyn Bender; sons in law James Smits and Thomas Chastine; brothers Joseph, Donald, Clarence, Clifford, Frank, Jerome; sister Jane Behnke; father Donald "Slavy" and mother Frances (Konkle).

A celebration of Robert's life will take place in the summer.
