With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Robert "Bob" John Stanczak, who departed this world peacefully on Saturday, October 18th, 2025, at the age of 55. Born on Friday, July 31st, 1970 in Detroit, Michigan, Robert was a cherished resident of Algonac, Michigan. Bob was a dedicated and extremely successful sales representative, carving out a respected 28-year career with his last year with his dream company, Southwest Elevator in Dallas, Texas. He was a proud alumnus of Ferris State University, where he earned his Bachelor's Degree and equipped himself with the skills that fueled his professional journey. He was a devoted family man, lovingly survived by his cherished wife, Ginger Lea Stanczak, and his beloved children, son Kyle Robert Stanczak and daughter Grace Lea Stanczak. He also leaves behind his brother Jeffrey Stanczak of Scottsdale, AZ. Beloved son-in-law to Cynthia Gober and brother-in-law to Gretchen (David) Martin and Casey (Jennesa) Gober. Cherished uncle of Ben and Sam Martin, Noah, Lukas, Levi, and Laney Gober. Bob was preceded in death by his parents and father-inlaw, Robert John Stanczak and Judith Ann Stanczak, and Robert Gober, who undoubtedly welcomed him with open arms. Bob's life was a testament to kindness and generosity. He was a lover of life who found joy in the simple pleasures. He was a passionate fan of the Lions, Tigers, Red Wings, and Cubs, a dedicated golfer, an avid pool player, and an enthusiastic angler. Country music's melodies filled his days, and his loyal dogs were constant companions. His presence enriched the lives of all who knew him.
