February 24, 1950 — June 10, 2026

Robert Lee Streetman was born on February 24, 1950, in Keysville, Georgia, to the late Jettie Streetman and Birda Mae Self Streetman. Robert was one of twelve children and is survived by four siblings: Jettie, Joseph, Wade, and Elaine. He was a devoted father to his two daughters, Sandra Gilbert and Tonia Kroboth, and a respected father-in-law to Terry Gilbert and Robert Kroboth. He was also a proud grandfather to Kala, Faryn, Cheyenne, and Tierra, and a loving great-grandfather to Milani, Braxton, and Millie. He leaves behind a host of nieces, nephews, extended family members, and friends who will cherish his memory. Throughout his life, Robert worked as a sanitation worker and held various other occupations. More importantly, he was known for his strong character, honesty, and unwavering faith. Robert was a man who spoke directly and believed in telling the truth without embellishment. He found joy in spending time with his family, sharing stories, enjoying good food, laughing with loved ones, and reading his Bible. His greatest earthly treasures were his two daughters, whom he adored deeply. His greatest spiritual treasure was his faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, whom he accepted wholeheartedly. Confident in his faith and ready for his eternal home, Robert departed this life knowing he would be reunited with his Savior. Though he will be greatly missed, his legacy of faith, strength, love, and family devotion will live on in the hearts of all who knew him.

2 Timothy 4:7

"I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith."

Henry Scott-Holland

Death is nothing at all. It does not count. I have only slipped away into the next room. Nothing has happened. Everything remains exactly as it was. I am I, and you are you, and the old life that we lived so fondly together is untouched, unchanged. Whatever we were to each other, that we are still. Call me by the old familiar name. Speak of me in the easy way which you always used. Put no difference into your tone. Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow. Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes that we enjoyed together. Play, smile, think of me, pray for me. Let my name be ever the household word that it always was. Let it be spoken without an effort, without the ghost of a shadow upon it. Life means all that it ever meant. It is the same as it ever was. There is absolute and unbroken continuity. What is this death but a negligible accident? Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? I am but waiting for you, for an interval, somewhere very near, just round the corner. All is well. Nothing is hurt; nothing is lost. One brief moment and all will be as it was before. How we shall laugh at the trouble of parting when we meet again!

Special Thanks

The family of our loved one extends heartfelt gratitude for your prayers, support, and kindness during this time.
