Robin Francis Emery's Obituary
Robin “Rob” Francis Emery passed away peacefully on December 9, 2024, with family by his side. He was the loving husband of the late Ismaela “Maria” Emery and the devoted father of Leah Beechy (Audra) and Kara Donovan (Kevin). He is survived by five siblings: Terry (Mary Ann) Emery, Lynda (Barry) Ryan, Richard Emery, Melissa Emery, and Deena Emery. He was preceded in death by his brother Timothy Emery. He is also welcomed into Heaven by his parents, Leonard and Noreen Emery.
Rob was a fun-loving guy whose smile lit up every room. His infectious laugh and generous heart were evident to everyone he met. He could be found supporting his daughters in their many activities, playing golf, cheering on Ohio sports teams, or enjoying a glass of red wine at home. He also loved music, whether it was attending a live concert or jamming to his favorite classic rock albums. Rob bravely fought an early onset Alzheimer’s diagnosis for 13 years.
