Robert W. “Rob” Kleczka, age 53, passed away peacefully on Friday, August 16, 2024, with his family at his side.
Rob was born in Racine on March 27, 1971, a son of the late Mitchell and Eldora ( Pagel) Kleczka.
He was self employed as a painter for many years.
A member of New Life Lutheran Church, Rob enjoyed going to the family cabin up north, attending car shows with Laura, fishing with Josh, and attending Megan’s orchestra concerts.
He also enjoyed hanging out with his “bud” Liam, going out for rides in his Dodge Ram truck, grilling out, and watching cop shows.
Rob is survived by his life partner and soulmate, Laura Wakefield; his brother, Bill (Kelly) Kleczka; a sister; his extended family, Kathy Wakefield, Marie (Steve) Janiak, and Megan and Josh Janiak. He is further survived by his cat, Tabby, and many nieces, nephews, and cousins.
Along with his parents and pet companions, Teddy and Sweetie, he was preceded in death by his siblings, Mitchell Kleczka, Patrick Kleczka, June (Charles) Besler, Kathleen Tomasini, and Sue Towne.
