Obituary of Robert Leon Kraemer

It's with deep sadness that I share the death of my brother, Robert Leon Kraemer, age 67, in Rochester, NY.  Leatherman, fly-tyer, watercolorist, motorcycle builder and rider extraordinaire, he loved that part of life where you work with your hands.  And like all of us, Robert looked for ways to express himself with something that would last.  

He lived in Rochester for twenty-five years, but would call Virgina home, and will rest finally with his parents in the Mahoning Valley of Pennsylvania, where he spent many happy summers as a child.  

Those who have known him recall the sincerity of his heart and his quiet, gentle character, regardless of the surrounding challenges, and certainly it's with these strengths that he faced the end.  

Your private thoughts and remembrances will be the commemoration of his passing.
