- Obituary for Mr. Robert E. Grefe from http://www.wakemanfuneralhome.com/obituaries/Robert-Grefe/#!/Obituary
Grefe, Mr. Robert E. (Bob) of Saginaw, Michigan passed away Wednesday, March 3, 2010, at Covenant Medical Center with his beloved wife, Ann, and family by his side. Age 87 years. Bob was born on March 26, 1922, in Midland, MI to the late John and Anna (Osborne) Grefe. He married Anna Rose Jeruskewicz on July 29, 1939. Together they shared 70 years of everlasting love and companionship. She survives him. Bob was a member of Good Shepherd Lutheran Church. He served in the U.S. Merchant Marines during WWII. He was employed by Dow Chemical Co. for thirty years, retiring in 1980. Bob’s love of nature was surpassed only by his love of family. His favorite days were spent searching, counting and banding birds, where his large, gentle hands could calm the most frightened of feathered friends. He was a charter volunteer at Shiawassee National Wildlife Refuge, where the Grefe Pool and Observation Deck stands dedicated in his honor. He was a member of the Michigan Audubon Society, Green Point Nature Center, and the YMCA Retirees Club.
Surviving besides his wife, Ann, are three children: Timothy (Tamara) Grefe, Saginaw, and their children, Andrew and Alexandra; Gretchen Grefe (Gary Szymzak), Saginaw; Rosalyn (Larry) Rohn, Merrill, and their children, Lisa (Jamey) Good, Steven (Jen) Rohn, Heidi (Chuck) Frakes, Kevin (Stacey) Rohn; Karl Rohn, and eight great-grandchildren.
Funeral service will take place 11:00 a.m. Saturday, March 6, 2010, at the Wakeman Funeral Home, Inc., 1218 N. Michigan Ave. The Rev. Mark P. Buckert will officiate with burial in Roselawn Memorial Gardens. Friends are welcome to visit with the family at the Wakeman Funeral Home, Inc. on Friday from 4:00 to 9:00 PM, then on Saturday from 10:00 AM until the time of service. Memorials may be given to Good Shepherd Lutheran Church or the Shiawassee National Wildlife Refuge. Memories and sympathies may be shared with the family online at WakemanFuneralHome.com
