Robert A. Schule, Sr.

Robert A. Schule, Sr., 94, of Cuyahoga Falls, passed away peacefully on March 4, 2026. He was born in Norwalk, Connecticut, in 1932, the cherished son of the late John and Mary Schule (née Johnson).

Bob proudly served his country in the U.S. Navy as a 3rd Class Gunner’s Mate from 1950 to 1954. During his service, he was stationed aboard the USS Sicily from 1950 to 1952 and the USS William R. Rush (DD/DDR 714) from 1953 to 1954. Following his time in the Navy, Bob built a long and dedicated career as a printer, continuing his work well into his 70s. He began his career in Connecticut, later working at Farm & Dairy in Salem, Ohio, and eventually retiring from Press Printing in Florida.

Bob was preceded in death by his parents; his beloved wife, Betty A. Schule (née Lockwood), who passed away in 2010; and his brothers, John and Eugene Schule.

He will be dearly missed by his children, Bob (Vickie) Schule and Debbie (Greg) Mulholland; siblings, Barbara (George) Howland and Donald (Sandy) Schule; grandchildren, Rob (Jen) Schule, Melissa (Brian) Moffet, Dustin (Abby) Schule, and Jessica (Shawn) Lohmier; and great-grandchildren, Aidan, Lainey, Emmelyn, Ellyse, Jackson, and Peyton. He is also survived by 11 nieces and nephews and 12 great-nieces and great-nephews.

Bob’s family will celebrate his life with a private gathering at a later date.

Bob loved his family and friends deeply and was loved in return by all who knew him. He had a special passion for music and drumming and delighted in sharing stories and memories from years gone by.
