"Bob was a truly good human being. There was time for work, but always more time for play. His drive for life never left room for boredom or anything but happy anticipation of the next adventure. When you really needed Bob, you could count on him being there for you. I will miss him beyond words."
In loving memory of
Robert W. Gravitter
December 24, 1949 - November 14, 2024
Robert W. "Bob" Gravitter
It is with great sadness that the Gravitter family announces the passing of a beloved father, brother, uncle and friend, Robert William Gravitter.
Bob passed away peacefully on Thursday, November 14, 2024. He was born on December 24, 1949 in Antigo, a son of the late William and Jean (Schubring) Gravitter.
Bob had a great work ethic and an even greater play ethic as marked by his early retirement from J.I. Case to pursue his love of hunting and any other adventure he could think of.
Survivors include two sons, Rob and Ryan Gravitter; siblings, Diane (Rick) Mazer, Nancy (Ray) Broome, Judy (Jim) Bialk and Steven Gravitter; Carol Adams (mother of his sons); and nieces, nephews, and friends.
Out of respect for Bob's wishes, there will be no memorial service. Remember Bob with kindness and a sense of humor!
Thank you,
Bob's loving family.
