FLORENCE, Wis. — Robert A. Printz, 82, of Florence, Wis. passed away peacefully on Sunday, Jan. 16, 2022, at Florence Health Services in Florence.

Bob was born on Feb. 23, 1939, in Milwaukee, to the late Patrick and Rena (Hollands) Printz. He graduated from Florence High School in 1957 and subsequently joined the U.S. Navy.

On July 3, 1965, Bob married Christine Kedzierski and they were blessed with 56 years of marriage. They were devout members of St. Mary Queen of Peace Church in Kingsford. Bob loved the Lord and was very strong in his faith.

Bob is lovingly survived by his wife, Christine Printz; grandchildren, Shawn Printz and Nicole Trevino; a great-grandson, Isaac Trevino; as well as several nieces and nephews and other family members.

In addition to his parents, Bob was preceded in death by a daughter, Cindy (Printz) Harris; both of his brothers, Richard Printz and Patrick Printz Jr.; sister, Betty Bock, and infant sister, Nancy Printz.
