Robert Louis Kiatta

Robert Louis Kiatta departed this earthly life on Monday, November 2 with family by his side at the blessed age of 92. He is survived by his loving wife of 71 years, Janet, and by his children, Donna (Stan) Merson, Ken (Gina) Kiatta, Christina (Demetre) Koutras; seven grandchildren and four great-grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his parents John and Esther Kiatta and sister Marion Marinelli.

After a long and successful career working for Woodward & Lothrop, he retired to enjoy his life and travel with Janet.
