June 28, 1952 - December 4, 2020

Robert “Bob” Mitchell Gora, 68, son of the late Mitchell and Wanda Gora, passed away on December 4, 2020. Beloved husband of 35 years to Graciela. Robert is survived by his wife Graciela, daughter Rachel (Nick), son Bobby; treasured grandfather to Nathan; dearest brother of Louise (Ted) Jablonski, Mitchell (Janet) Gora and Janice Deignan; cherished brother-in-law of Virginia Knight, Marie Cuevas and Martin (Cathy) Cuevas; beloved uncle, great uncle, cousin, friend and coach to many. Bob attended St. Hedwig Elementary School and Lane Tech High School before entering the Air Force where he was honorably discharged as a Tech Sergeant of Communications after 8 years of service.
