Robert J. Page

Robert J. "BooBoo" Page, age 82, passed away peacefully at Amherst Manor after a brief illness on Thursday, June 13, 2024. He was born in Lorain on June 17, 1941, to Ross Jr. and Ella (nee Weiss) Page. Robert was a lifelong resident of Lorain and a proud 1960 graduate of Lorain High School. In 1991, Robert married his beloved wife, Louise, and they moved to Amherst, where they built a life together. He dedicated 40 years and 7 days to his work in the sheet metal division at Lorain Products before retiring in 2001. His weekends were often spent hauling trailers for Sandy's Trailers, a job he thoroughly enjoyed. Robert was a devoted parishioner of St. Peter's Church, serving faithfully as an usher for over 50 years and was a member of the Holy Name Society for a time. His commitment to his faith community was an inspiration to all who knew him. Bowling was one of Robert's great passions, a love that began in high school. He served as the Secretary for the Lorain Products Bowling League for an impressive 50 years. Through playing many years of his beloved sport, Bob proudly bowled a perfect game once, earning him the flawless score of 300. Robert was also an avid sports fan, cheering on the Cleveland Browns, Indians, Cavaliers, and The Ohio State Buckeyes with unwavering enthusiasm. In his later years, Bob's favorite hang-out was Ali's Sunoco, a place he cherished and visited daily. Known affectionately as Ali's "unofficial" greeter, Bob took immense joy in talking to everyone who came in. His warm presence and friendly conversations made him a beloved figure at the station, where he forged numerous friendships that enriched his life and the lives of those around him. He found joy in taking trips to the beautiful Amish Country in southern Ohio, appreciating the tranquility and simplicity of the area. Robert's warmth, dedication, and spirited nature will be deeply missed by all who knew him. He leaves behind a legacy of hard work, faith, and love for his family and community. May he rest in eternal peace. Robert is survived by his loving wife, Louise C. (nee Woods), his sister, Martha Schneider, of Amherst, brother-in-law, Claude J. (Nancy) Woods, of Amherst, nieces; Michelle (nee Schneider) & Kevin Huber, of VA, Melinda (nee Schneider) & Steve Bartizal, of Amherst, Dawn Woods, of Amherst and Jodi Meyers, of Lorain and nephews; Roy Schneider II, of Lorain and Rick (Karen) Schneider, of Avon. He is also survived by great nieces and great nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents.
