Robert B. Biggs, 95, of Lancaster, passed away on May 18, 2022. He was born in Lancaster to the late George and Catherine Flick Biggs.
After graduating from Lancaster Catholic High School, Bob honorably served in the United States Navy during WWII.

Condolences to the Biggs Family. Your dad will be truly miss, he was a Blessing to our neighborhood. When we moved in he was the first neighbor to come and welcome us.. Bob was a very kind hearted person. My husband enjoyed sitting with him in his driveway just having small talk. Praying God will give your families strength and peace at this difficult time.

Dear Beth Ann, Bob and Family, Bob was such a great guy. When we lived in PA we would always go out to dinner after Sat. mass. Although it’s been over 16 yrs. since we left we have always stayed in touch. We had this thing about birthdays. We always sent cards and always had a long phone call to catch up on each others lives. He will truly be missed here but joining Marion in heaven. RIP dear friend. Diane & Bob Subach
