Robert E. Wallace, 62 of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania passed away suddenly on Thursday, May 7th, 2020. Robert went peacefully in his sleep at home. Robert was a Navy Veteran who loved traveling the world by sea. As a retired Sous Chef of the Philadelphia Art Museum, he had a passion for cooking, and could whip up any dish as long as "you fly, I'll buy". He loved his trips to Ocean City, NJ, where he could go to the arcade and play the pin ball machines, eat his favorite Johnson's Popcorn, salt water taffy's, and fudge. The smell of the ocean air, and walks along the beach in the presence of his family gave him a great sense of comfort and joy. He loved the outdoors and camping as he thought of himself as THE 'Survivorman' Most importantly, he enjoyed spending time with his best friend and neighbor, Edward, they were two peas in a pod. Bob could put a smile on your face from the first encounter. He loved his daughters Danielle and Nicole unconditionally. Robert was there for them through every trial and tribulation and they were his life! You could count on him for any and everything. He devoted his life to his late wife Karen, his daughters, and his grandchildren; Vivianna, Olivia, and Colton who will miss him dearly. He was a loving uncle to Josh, Michael, Loretta, Love, Sam, Myeesha, Elizabeth, and Diane. Robert was also the beloved brother of Anna Marie. Robert was a man of outstanding character who will be missed tremendously, more than words can ever say. He will always and forever be in our hearts. Rest in paradise until we see you again!
