A Life of Service


We want to take a moment to honor the life of Bob Adelberg. Bob was a husband, father, and Red Cross volunteer. He served his country as a Lieutenant Commander in the US Coast Guard Reserve. Bob was a member of the University of Louisville Athletics National Anthem Committee, held 7 minor principal roles for the Kentucky Opera, and served as Kentucky 3rd District Republican Chair from 1984-1990.

We are privileged to have witnessed Bob’s commitment to giving back as he was a Red Cross volunteer for over 55 years. His impact on the community was undeniable and we will miss him. During his time volunteering, Bob saved at least 3 lives on separate occasions using CPR/First Aid, was a lifetime board member, and was a deserving recipient of many awards. Bob won the Red Cross Ina J. Porter Leadership award, the Seasoned Saint Volunteer Award, and the Volunteer Leadership award for Blood Services. He was a member of 8+ additional Board of Directors throughout his life.

Please join us in offering condolences to Bob’s family. We are thankful for the many years of service he gave to helping others.
