He was a special kind of person, a warm and friendly individual with a heart of gold. His sense of humor was contagious. Few could ever compete with him as he tackled the most intricate crossword puzzles. He loved sports, games and cooking. In fact he was a cook in the army during the BIG WAR. While on leave at a USO dance in Kansas City, he met his wife Jacqueline. They married in 1952 and settled in KC in 1960. Robert was a partner at the accounting firm Kahn, Kaufman, & Lerner. Dedicated to his family and friends, he will forever leave memories of warmth and joviality and will be missed by all.

In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to the Jefferson Manor Nursing Facility Employee Fund, Louisville KY. The family is very thankful for the exceptional care given for both parents.
