Robert L. Valenza

June 26, 1953 — April 22, 2024

McPherson, KS

With heavy hearts, his family announces that Robert L. “Robbie” Valenza passed away suddenly on April 22, 2024, at the young age of 70.  He was born and raised in Houston, TX, and attended the University of Houston. Robbie married Lisa Rosenblath in April 1976, and they had three beautiful children.  He worked in many positions and with many wonderful people during his 40-year career at Kroger, most recently in Logistics and Risk Management.   

 

Robbie met Angie, the love of his life, at a PTA meeting, and they married in 1995. He was a loving and devoted husband, father, and grandfather and, as his loved ones know well, Robbie was an avid sports fanatic.  Go Broncos, Avs, Chiefs, yada, yada, yada. Above all else, Robbie loved God and his church . . . and smoking any nearly expired meat.

 

Robbie was preceded in death by his parents, Elizabeth “Betsy” and Joseph “Joe” Valenza and his father-in-law, Jim. He is survived by his wife, Angela; his children, Melissa, Bethany (Travis), and Brandon; his grandchildren Kierra, Bailey, Mylee, Jaiden, Jonah, Caleb, Madilyn, Noble, Zayne, and Adeya; his great grandchild, Nicolas; his mother-in-law, Janet, his siblings, Christine, Joseph (Mike), John, and Paul; and many old and new precious friends. 

 

A rosary and funeral mass will be held Monday, April 29, 2024, starting at 10:00 a.m., at St. Joseph Catholic Church, McPherson, KS.   

 

Donations honoring Robbie’s life may be made to Denver Rescue Mission, Catholic Charities, or St. Joseph Catholic Church in care of Stockham Family Funeral Home, 205 North Chestnut, McPherson, KS 67460.
