Robert Allen Kragt, age 67, of Caledonia was called to his heavenly home on Wednesday, October 28, 2020 with members of his family at his side.  He was preceded in death by his father, Andrew Kragt; and brother, Calvin.  He will be lovingly remembered by his wife of 46 years, Deborah; his children, Kelly and Keith Franken, Ryan and Kristen Kragt; his mother, Donna Kragt; grandchildren, Kennedy, Ethan Franken, Katelyn, Matthew, Alex Kragt; sisters, Jennifer and Hank Nederhoed, Valerie and Jeffrey JeanPierre, Lynne Jacobs, Brenda Kragt; sister-in-law, Jill and Terry Vroegindewey; parents-in-law, Donald and Eleanor Tillema; uncle, Donald and Henrietta DeKoster; many nieces, nephews, cousins, and dear friends.  After graduating from Kalamazoo Christian High School, Bob worked at AT&T for 30 years. Bob was a warm, loving, caring husband, father and grandfather.  The most important thing in Bob’s life was his faith and relationship with Jesus Christ which he was always willing to share.  His family was the next most important part of his life.  He loved spending time with his family, hiking with Ryan, attending grandchildren’s soccer games, baseball games, and other events, helping with their homework, and riding bikes with them.  Bob was physically fit, enjoyed traveling, hiking, and being outdoors.  He was a loving, supportive care giver for the love of his life, Deb.  Memorial services will be held 3:00 PM Monday, November 2nd at Brookside Christian Reformed Church, 3600 Kalamazoo Ave. SE with Rev. Paul DeVries officiating. Live streaming of the service can be viewed at https://facebook.com/brooksidecrc.org.
