Bobby Knaus

Bobby L. (Bob) was born on March 12, 1938, to Leland Knaus and Ellogene Scudder. A graduate of Vevay High School, he attended Ball State and served in the Army until his retirement in 2006. He had been employed by Warner Gear, Muncie, Delco Remy, Anderson, and H. H. Greg Anderson, Indianapolis. 

Bob and Betty (Kose, Culver, IN) were married more than 62 years. They raised two sons, Jeffery Michael, (Bradenton, FL) and Mark Alan (Newburgh, IN). They have four grandchildren, four great-grandchildren, six nephews, one niece, and a sister-in-law, Linda Hall. His sister, Lucille Scott, preceded him in passing. 

Bob’s family was well-known and respected as hard workers who were friendly and generous hey took pride in all they had. The men were all sports fans, Cincinnati Reds, but Bob remained a St. Louis Carnal, always. He coached many ball teams in the Chesterfield area. He knew the games, taught the games, and knew how to win!
