Robert John Entz, 72, left this life on
Saturday (Nov. 30, 2019) while being cared for by the Kansas
Christian Home and Good Shepherd Hospice in Newton. Bob was born on
Jan. 20, 1947, in Concordia and grew up in Newton.
He was preceded in death by his

Bob is survived by his life partner of
13 years, Lois Porter; sister, Eileen and Darrell Voth; brother, Mike
and Susi Entz; granddaughter, Elizabeth Hull; and nieces, Amanda and

Bob won several battles with cancer
during his lifetime, but the last and final one was complicated by
heart disease. His family grieves for their loss but rejoices that
his pain is gone and Bob is at peace with his Lord and Savior, Jesus
Christ.
Bob loved his life with Lois, their
home and their feline fur baby, Lacy. He was grateful for his
wonderful family and friends. He appreciated the love and support
they showed him and Lois during these last few weeks.
