Robert Hoch

Obituary Robert "Bob" Dale Hoch, age 63, of Wagoner passed away peacefully on Thursday evening, December 1, 2011 at his home surrounded by his loved ones. He was born November 28, 1948 in Powell, WY to his parents James and Anna (Kysar) Hoch. Bob was the fourth of their five children- Jim, Johnny, Joy and Sue. Bob proudly fathered three children - Bobby, John and Anna, whom he loved dearly and enjoyed sharing time with them. As a young man, Bob proudly enlisted in the United States Marine Corp during the Vietnam War era. Bob attended college to earn a degree in Accounting but decided to leave and begin a construction company before completing it. Bob was always an entrepreneur trying his hand at many different venues. Bob and his life-long partner, Rusty spent 32 years together enjoying what life put before them. Bob and Rusty were married in Des Moines, Iowa on July 2, 2010 supported by their family and friends. Bob and Rusty lived in many states including Kansas, Texas and Wyoming, finally making their home in Wagoner, Oklahoma in 1992. Bob enjoyed the holidays, especially Christmas and yearly, his yards - front and back- grew with the ornaments and light displays he so loved. Bob would just beam watching the joy on others' faces as they looked in child-like wonder at the beauty he had created. Bob is lovingly survived by his life-long partner of 32 years, Robert "Rusty" Hamilton of the home; his two sons, Bobby Hoch of Kansas and John Hoch of Colorado; his beloved daughter, Anna Brunner of Peggs, OK; his loving sister, Sue Billups and her husband, Bob; his best friend and nephew, Bill Billups; nine grandchildren; and numerous nieces, nephews and other relatives. Bob had many close friends, too numerous to mention. Bob was preceded in death by his parents, brothers, Jim and Johnny and sister, Joy. A private service will be held at the home with a burial following afterwards. The family of Robert "Bob" Hoch entrusted his care and services to Wright-Brown Family Funeral Home, 210 S.
