Robert P. Hurd
March 26, 1945 – Aug. 13, 2003
Robert P. HURD, 58, 2318 Westgate Drive, Logansport, died at 8:25 a.m. Wednesday at Logansport Memorial Hospital, where he had been a patient since Aug. 4.
He was born in Logansport, the third child of Robert and Mary HURD and the late Edith BISH HURD. He was a 1964 graduate of Carroll High School. Bob resided in Logansport for 18 years, coming from Indianapolis. He married Sharon Elaine Burkett Oct. 13, 1968, in Rochester. She died May 24, 2003.
After graduation, with great pride, Bob served his country with the U.S. Army in the Vietnam War. He earned a Good Conduct Medal, Vietnam Campaign Medal, Vietnam Service Medal and the National Defense Service Medal.
He was a faithful employee of Daimler-Chrysler Transmission Plant, Kokomo. He possessed an excellent work ethic and was known for his dedication to quality. Recently, he received his 35 year anniversary pin marking his years of service there.
Bob enjoyed many friendships he made through active involvement of church, clubs and organizations. These included The River of Life Christian Church, United Auto Workers Union 683, Mizpah Shrine Temple, Fort Wayne, Scottish Rite, Tipton Free and Accepted Masons Lodge 33 and the Bulldog Club of America.
Bob and his late wife, Sharon [HURD], established the Bully Hill Kennel. They were proud owners of champion bulldogs, usually being shown around the Midwest show circuit by Bob. He enjoyed playing cards at the Shrine Club. He loved water sports, from skiing to tubing. He looked forward to relaxing with his family and grandchildren while vacationing at nearby lakes. The times he truly cherished were those spent surrounded by his family.
Bob will always be remembered for his quiet, gentle demeanor, patience and strong desire to help anyone in need, whether it be large or small.
Survivors include one daughter, Jennifer LeeAnn and husband George EBEY II, Warsaw; one son, Christopher Robert [HURD] , Logansport; three grandchildren, Alexandria HURD, Walton, and Damon and Joshua EBEY, Warsaw; two sisters, Linda HULL and husband Rex, Delhi, Calif., and Connie SCHWERING and husband Ron, Logansport; numerous nieces and nephews and special family friend, Christy WAGONER, Indianapolis.
Other survivors include his mother-in-law, Beulah B. BURKETT, Rochester, and two sisters-in-law, Joyce A. GOOD, Rochester, and Carolyn HODGSON, Cadillac, Mich.
A celebration of Bob's life will be held at 10 a.m. Saturday at Foster & Good Funeral Home, Rochester, with Rev. Cameron DOUGLAS officiating. Burial will be at Rochester IOOF Cemetery. Visitation is 4-8 p.m. Friday at the funeral home and one hour prior to services. The Logansport Shrine Club will conduct a memorial service at 7:30 p.m. Friday at the funeral home. The American Legion and Veterans of Foreign Wars will conduct military graveside rites. In lieu of flowers memorials may be made to the Shriner's Children's Fund.
