IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Robert "Bobby"
William Trask, Jr.
September 14, 1967 – April 4, 2025
Robert "Bobby" W. Trask, Jr., 57, of Coal Valley, transitioned from this life on Friday, April 4, 2025, at his home. In keeping with Bobby's wishes, cremation rites have been accorded, and a celebration of his vibrant life will be held Saturday, May 17, 2025 at Vander Vending in Milan, from 2:00 - 6:00 pm.
Bobby entered the world on September 14, 1967, in Rock Island, Illinois, to the loving parents Robert W. Sr. and Joyce E. Fox Trask. He was a proud graduate of Rock Island High School and was known for his warmth and infectious spirit.
He dedicated his professional life to Vander Vending in Rock Island, where he formed lasting connections with colleagues and customers alike. Bobby was a passionate Chicago Bears fan who could often be found cheering on his team with unwavering loyalty. His adventurous spirit led him to enjoy camping, gardening, and making unforgettable memories traveling to Florida, where the ocean and the magic of Disney World held a special place in his heart.
Above all, Bobby's greatest joy came from his children: Kaysee Campbell and Noah Campbell. He cherished every moment spent with them, creating beautiful memories and nurturing their dreams.
In addition, Bobby leaves behind two additional daughters, Tabitha Soenke and Kimber Trask; his siblings, Daniel Jacobs, Renee Mathews, and Sally Gross, as well as his sister-in-law, Sue Jacobs, and niece, Savhanna, along with numerous nieces and nephews who will remember him fondly.
He is reunited in spirit with his beloved parents and brothers, David, Dennis, and Donnie Jacobs, who await him in eternal peace.
Online condolences, cherished memories, and expressions of sympathy can be shared with the family at wheelanpressly.com as we prepare to celebrate the remarkable life of Bobby Trask, a man whose legacy of love and laughter will forever echo in our hearts.
