Michael Eugene Robb, affectionately known as Mike, passed away peacefully on February 3, 2026, in Poland, Ohio, at the age of 64. Born on November 21, 1961, in Salem, Ohio, Mike lived a life filled with love, laughter, and dedication.
Mike proudly served his country as a member of the U.S. Army from 1981 to 1984, an experience that shaped his character and values. Following his military service, he embarked on a career as a machinist specializing in parts quality control at ATD Corp. His meticulous attention to detail and commitment to excellence earned him the respect and admiration of his colleagues.
A man of varied passions, Mike found joy in the roar of NASCAR engines and cherished rooting for the Cleveland Browns through many a season. Above all, he treasured the time spent with his family, especially watching his beloved grandchildren play sports.
Mike is preceded in death by his father, Eugene C. Robb. He leaves behind a loving family who will forever hold him in their hearts: His mother, Mary Jackson, his devoted wife, Tammy (Rickerd) Robb; sons William (Billie Jean) Robb, Carl (Heather) Robb, Michael Rickerd, and Josh (Lisa) Lamp; sisters Cindy Robb, Mary (Rich) Scott, Lori (Mike) Shreves, Kathy (Paul) Webber, and Amy (Dan) Desorbes; and brothers Dave Jackson and K.C. Robb. He was a proud grandfather to Tamitha, Jeremiah, Elijah, Alexis, and Jonathan Robb, and Airianna, Greg, and Micha Adams. He will also be deeply missed by many nieces and nephews, including Adrianna Knight and Michael (Amanda).
Family and friends are invited to pay their respects at the Martin Chapel of Care Funeral & Cremation Specialists in Calcutta. Visiting hours will be held from 11 am to 1 pm on Saturday, February 7, 2026.
