Robert Stanley Stover II

Robert Stanley Stover II, known affectionately as Bob to his friends and family, passed away peacefully on May 25, 2025. Born on November 11, 1949, in Logan, West Virginia, Bob was a man whose warmth and generosity touched the lives of all who knew him.

Bob was the cherished son of the late Robert Stanley Stover and Maria Jane Stover. He carried the legacy of his parents with grace and honor throughout his life. Bob experienced the profound loss of his beloved daughter, Amanda "Mandy" Erin Stover, whose memory he held close to his heart. He is survived by his devoted wife, Lynette Adams Stover, of Jacksonville, Florida, who was his partner in all of life's adventures. Bob was a loving father to his son, Lance Stover, and a guiding light to his daughter-in-law, Misty Stover. His role as a grandfather to Ian and Ty Stover was one of his greatest joys, and he cherished every moment spent with them. Bob's sister, Sarah Jane Cripe, along with several nieces, nephews, cousins, and in-laws, will fondly remember his friendly and generous spirit.

Bob's professional life as a retired General Contractor and Custom Home Builder was marked by his dedication to craftsmanship and his commitment to his clients. His work stands as a testament to his attention to detail and his passion for creating homes that families would cherish for generations. In recent years, at a high school reunion, he reconnected with and married his wonderful wife, Lynn. This led to his relocation back to Jacksonville, FL after having lived in the mountains of WNC for several years. The mountains held a special place in his heart. His new home with Lynn led to new friends and a new church.

Beyond his professional achievements, Bob was an avid golfer who found serenity on the greens. He was a fixture at his grandsons' sporting events, always their most enthusiastic supporter. Bob's love for coaching youth baseball and football showcased his dedication to nurturing young talent and his belief in the importance of teamwork. His adventurous spirit led him to enjoy both water and snow skiing, embracing the excitement of each new challenge. Above all, Bob valued the time spent with his family, recognizing that these moments were the true treasures of life.

Celebration of life will be Sat June 21, 2025 at 11am at Church of Our Saviour 12236 Mandarin Rd in Jacksonville, FL 32223
