James "Jim" Robb

James Stephen Robb, 70, was taken home to the Lord, peacefully on September 1st, 2025. He had been surrounded by multiple family members and friends who wanted to say goodbye at his time at Perrysburg Hospice of NW Ohio. 2:10 pm, the time you passed, will forever be special, 10 being your football jersey number during your time at Rogers High School Class of 1973in Toledo, Ohio, on a “manic Monday."

May you experience peace from your schizophrenia, kidneys, broken bones, and may your life be restored with HIM. He always knew how to make the sunshine seem so much brighter. It was so difficult these last two weeks to feel helpless and watch it day after day; days leading up to your meeting with Jesus.

Jim Robb, Jimi, you were a treasure. A precious jewel searching through the rough stones. Jim was an incredible father, grandfather, son, brother, uncle, cousin, and friend to many.


Jim is survived by his daughter Heather L. Stokes (Robb), son(s) in heart, Robert A. Stokes and Alex R. Young, and grandson (his champ) Christian J. Stokes, his best friend for life ***Vickie A. Ulman (Robb-Goldfuss).*** His mother, “Peg” was born in 1925; Margaret Robb (Klein), brothers David Robb and Scott Robb, and sisters Nancy Robb (Shaffer) and Cindy Kelly (Robb), multiple nieces and a nephew, as well as many great-nieces and nephews.


Tell everyone we miss that they'd better have welcomed you with a rock & roll party with some early 80's and 90's Christian ballads, preceded in death by his father Harry Daniel Robb, the Klein matriarchy, and the Robb patriarchy. His Grandfather, Harry Duplien Robb, a former NFL player, coach, and referee, as well as a Pennsylvania area football legacy for the Canton Bulldogs in the 1920s-1930s, passed away in 1971. In 1963, Robb represented his former teammate, Wilbur Henry, as Henry was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.


His Celebration of Life is planned to be held on Monday, November 10th at 2 pm as the month of thanks and will be located at Lake Township Hall off 795, 27975 Cummings Road Millbury, Ohio 43447. Memories will be from 3 pm-4 pm with songs. The Ceremony will begin at 4:00pm with a Potluck to follow at 5 pm to laugh, smile, sing, and have fellowship with one another. Dishes will be accepted. Please feel free to bring sides, dessert or beverage to share. Please, no alcohol permitted at the venue.



He was always thankful, no matter what life brought his way. Please make all donations to NAMI, as mental illness awareness was always a part of his legacy. You are enough. Always.
