With
heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Robert Tinneny,
Sr., a cherished father, grandfather, great grandfather,
and friend on December 4, 2025, at the age of 80.
Robert
was a devoted father to his children: Robert Jr.
(Colleen), Melissa Ford (Joseph), Holly (Will), and
Jennifer (Kevin). He took immense pride in being a
grandfather to Joelene (Chris), Robert III, Jenna (Quan),
Bryan, Damian (Ashley), Robin, Michael (Sierra), and
Conor. His legacy continues with his
great-grandchildren: John, Peyton, Nahyir, Nathan,
Quinn, Chase, and soon, precious Paisley.
He was
loved immeasurably by his family and will be deeply
missed by his sister Betty Thummel, and many beloved
nieces and nephews. Robert was preceded in death by his
parents, Joseph and Mary Tinneny, his step-father Bob
Firth, and his siblings, Joseph, Maryann Long, John,
Eileen Mullen, Doris Janson, and Joyce Kresge.
A
machine operator at Canada Dry-Pepsi for over 36 years,
Robert was a hardworking man who dedicated his life to
providing for his family. A passionate sports
enthusiast, he was an avid Phillies fan who delighted in
sporting his Phillies gear and attending games. He
enjoyed family game nights, often engaging in
light-hearted rivalry, proving that spending time with
loved ones was what he cherished most.
Robert
had a knack for collecting coins and was known for being
a saver but never hesitated to lend a helping hand to
those in need. He had a playful spirit, often placing
small bets and indulging in scratch-off lottery tickets,
bringing a spark of joy to his everyday life.
The
family will hold a Viewing on December 10, 2025 starting
at 10:00 AM at Koller Funeral Home, 6835 Ridge Ave. A
Funeral Service to celebrate Robert's remarkable life
will follow at 12:00 PM. Interment is private.

As we remember Robert, we
honor his spirit of kindness, humor, and
unwavering love for his family. He has left
a lasting impact on all of our lives, and
though he is no longer with us, his memory
will live on in our hearts. |
