Robert L. "Bob" Slick

Bob Slick, 67, was sent to his spiritual life on Monday, February 8, 2021.  He was born on October 21, 1953 in Columbus, Ohio to the late Lester Jr. and Shirley (Lozier) Slick. He had 5 children with the late Vicki (Kerr) Slick. He later married his surviving wife, Tammy (Sandberg) Slick in 1999.

Bob enjoyed bowling the most – owning Slick’s Pro Shop, coaching, and especially helping the Special Olympics bowlers. He also enjoyed hunting, fishing, golf, model car building, and during his first marriage – craft fairs and traveling to Canada with his family. He loved his country and 50/60’s music.

Bob is also survived by his children: Jennifer Slick, Carrie Slick Mickler, Tracie Slick (Roger Racknor), Shelly Slick (Harry Rusch), and Christopher Slick (Julie); grandchildren: Joshua Nieland (Kirsten), Brianna Slick, Shyann Nieland Banker (Cole), Allyssa Slick (Nate), Brandon Slick (Brooke), Zackary Slick, and Brady Rusch; along with several great grandchildren; his brother Eddy Slick (Linda); sister Pamela Slick (Rob); father- and mother-in-law Robert and Joyce (Sabel) Sandberg; 2 sisters-in-law: Dawn Schmidt (Wayne), and Wendy Sandberg (Frank); and other relatives and let’s not forget his dog, Jozie.

He is preceded in death by his parents, first wife, his sister and brother-in-law Jackie Olson (Don), and Vicki’s mother Jeanette Kerr and many pets.

A celebration of life event will be planned for family at a later date. All are invited to Sabre Lanes on Monday, February 15 from 6:30 – 7:30, with a farewell toast set at 7 pm as a way for his bowling family and friends to pay their respects. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions are appreciated to American Diabetes Association or Special Olympics. To express condolences, please visit www.wichmannfuneralhomes.com
