Robert W. Kimball, of Middleburgh, passed away on Wednesday, August 7, 2024, at home in the loving care of his family.
Bob was born on October 28, 1940 in Hobart, NY to Margaret (Decker) and Raymond C. Kimball. Never one to shy away from hard work, Bob began his trade in construction while still in school, only taking a day off for High School Graduation. And at one time, Bob was the only flagstone cutter in Schoharie County. His skills went far beyond construction and masonry. He loved gardening, hunting, fishing and is revered for his cooking, barbequing and for his snapping turtle soup.
In his leisure, Bob could be found enjoying the outdoors and relaxing at Country Roads Campsite in Gilboa. He loved visiting with friends, playing dominos and was a member of the Fraternal Order of Eagles #2695, in Cobleskill.
Loving Bob forever are his wife: Geraldine (Batza) of Middleburgh, whom he married on November 27, 1965 and his daughter: Kimberly Kimball of Middleburgh; his son: Henry (Rachael) Kimball, Sr. of North Blenheim; his daughter-in-law: Carole Kimball of Middleburgh; his grandchildren: Megan (of Aurora Mason) Towne, Henry Kimball, Jr., McKayla Kimball, Maggie Claire Kimball: his sister: Katherine (Francis) Abbott, of Watsonville; his sister-in-law: Carol Kimball of Aurora, Colorado. Bob was predeceased by his son: Raymond M. Kimball and his brother: James H. Kimball, Sr.
