Robert "Bob" V. Barker, 81, of Sandusky passed away Tuesday, September 15, 2020 in the Hospice of Northwest Ohio, Toledo.

He was born February 5, 1939 in Rand, West Virginia.

Bob was a veteran of the U.S. Army, serving during Vietnam, the Coast Guard, with search and rescue, in Kodiak, Alaska aboard the USS Bittersweet. He worked at the Norfolk-Western and Southern as a car inspector and was a part-time police officer.

He enjoyed rides at Cedar Point, playing cards, bingo, working on his cars, dancing, and watching Star Trek. Bob loved walking at the mall, through Sam's Club, and around Cedar Point, talking to all his wonderful friends he made along the way. Bob had fun traveling the beaches of the Outer Banks, North Carolina, and the bayou in Prairieville, Louisiana. Most of all he loved spending time with his daughter, son-in-law, and grandsons, they meant the world to him.

He is survived by his daughter and son-in-law, Susan & Rick Bonderer; grandsons, Andrew and Amanda Bonderer, Josh and Ashley Bonderer, and Lucas Bonderer; great grandsons, Austin and Colin Bonderer; great grandpuppies, Ginger, Ralphie, and Max; great grand kitty, Hachi; sisters, Mary Ann Sigmon and Linda Kephart; brothers, Herbert Barker, Charles "Pete" Pauley; sister-in-law, Diane Eversole; nieces and nephews.
