Dolle, Robert J. (6 DEC 1955 – 28 FEB 2015)

Robert Joseph Dolle, 59, Detroit, Mich., passed away on Feb. 28, 2015. A mass will be held at 11 a.m., on Thursday, May 21, at St. Mary’s Catholic Church, Greenwood. Rev. Steve Brice will officiate. Interment will follow at St. Mary’s Catholic Cemetery. Pallbearers will be Anthony and Paul Dolle.

Robert "Bob" Dolle was born on Dec. 6, 1955, in Blue Island, Ill. to Kenneth R. and Mary J. (nee Spooner) Dolle. He graduated from Ascension Grade School and attended Thorton High School in Harvey, Ill. From an early age, Bob developed an impressive work ethic. In his youth, he shoveled snow, mowed lawns, repaired shoes and worked in a bakery. As an adult, he did factory work until he retired. In 2013, he moved to Detroit, Mich., where he lived until his death. Bob was a kind, generous man; what possessions he had, he shared freely and without reservation. He loved animals, listening to Motown music, fishing, watching the Chicago White Sox and Cubs, playing baseball and collecting baseball cards. He was an entertaining and comical storyteller who loved being with his family, especially during the holidays.

Bob will be missed by his father, Kenneth R. Dolle, Greenwood; siblings Karen (Jim) Mohr, Neillsville, Denise Carter, Neillsville, Anthony (Eloise) Dolle, Loyal, Margaret (Jay) Ouimette, Neillsville, Dawn (Matt Meyer) Ormond, Neillsville, Jeannine Spooner (Nick) Kitzhaber, Arden Hills, Minn., Paul Dolle, Menomonie, Nicholas (Janet) Dolle, Neillsville, George Dolle, Las Vegas, Nev., Eric Dolle, Greenwood, and Christopher (Carie) Dolle, Chilton; and many nieces, nephews and friends.

Bob will be reunited in heaven with his mother, Mary J. Dolle, who passed away on March 19, 2015, and his brother Kenneth J. Dolle, who died on Dec. 28, 2002. He was preceded in death by many other relatives.

In lieu of flowers, memorials may be directed to St. Mary’s Catholic Church, Greenwood.
