Burt Theodore Slowbe's Obituary
Burt Theodore Slowbe, 74, of North Olmsted, OH, passed on January 4, 2023 after battles with multiple illnesses.
Burt was preceded in death by his parents, Albert and Virginia Slowbe, and his beloved wife Marjorie, "Margie."

Burt loved to travel -- especially to New Orleans with wife Margie for Mardi Gras. In their younger years, he and best pal Chuck traveled around the country, and he loved reminiscing about this adventure.. He enjoyed gardening and filled his backyard with a variety fruit trees. Burt was a member of the Theodore Breck Masonic Lodge No. 714 in Brecksville, and was a parade participant as “Rinkles the Clown” in many, many parades.
Burt and his dad spent many hours restoring his 1971 Karmann Ghia, a project which brought him great pride and lasting memories.
Burt was truly one-of-a-kind and will be missed.
