Robert Louis Hewitt, Jr.
Age 88, of Bancroft, passed away peacefully at home on Aug. 10, 2021.
Cremation has taken place. A graveside burial service will take place Sat., Sept. 4 in Gould City, MI.
Bob was born Sept. 21, 1932, in Gould City, MI to Robert & Marion (Baker) Hewitt. He was a member of the Little River Band of Ottawa Indians and a lifetime member of the NRA.
He had served for four years in the Air Force, reaching the rank of staff sergeant. He was a radar operator stationed in Alaska during the Korean War.
He was retired from Ford Motor Co., Rawsonville Plant after 30 years. He then bought a backhoe and an 80-acre spread of land with a hayfield on it and enjoyed working around there for another 23 years.
Bob was a rock-solid, loyal, dependable man. He was the guy who didn't ask if you needed help digging, he just showed up with his shovel. He will be sorely missed by all who appreciated him.
He is survived by sons, Robert Michael (Patty) Hewitt and his daughter Crystal Hewitt; Kevin (Laura) Hewitt and their sons Max and Alex Hewitt; daughter, Julie Tucker and her kids Dan (Nikki) Tucker, Michael (Candace) Tucker, David (Courtney) Tucker and Sarah Hewitt. Great-grandkids Anakin, Emerson, Penelope, Mara and Lucy; Ian, Angelina, Jasmine and Aria.
He is also survived by his sister and special brother-in-law Patsy & Sam McPherson of Engadine - whose home he called Home. He also cared a great deal for his many nieces and nephews.
He is predeceased by sister, Sally Haley and brothers, Dale, Donald, Wesley & Floyd Hewitt.
