Robert John Kittler

He was born July 7, 1977 (a birthday he shares with his mom) in Longmont, Colorado to Bobbie and Gerhard Kittler. Rob was preceded in death by his father, Gerhard Kittler, January 23, 2022.

Robert leaves behind his mother Bobbie Brown (Mike), sister Jennifer Salyers (Bruce), his three amazing children Logan (Krystin), Emma and Seneca and his ex-wife and lifelong friend, Melissa Kittler. He is also survived by his step mom, Karen Kittler and her children, aunts, uncles, cousins, Bryan, Brayden and many friends.

His love for magic started when he was a toddler and swallowed some heart medication. The doctor placed him in a little straight jacket to administer medication. However, Rob surprised them all and escaped.

He adored his three cats and dog and loved the sport of soccer. His hobbies included acrylic painting and hiking. More than anything Rob loved his family.

He graduated from Niwot High school. This prepared him for a career in real estate and he became the owner of Lincoln Logs Real Estate.

He later purchased a children’s book store where you would often see him walking around as Clifford the big red dog.

He continued his education and graduated from ORU with a teaching degree and loved working with elementary children.

Robert placed his dreams on hold and joined his mother to care for his disabled uncle, Billy. Worked at the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park as a Ghost tour guide.

Dreams of finishing his Doctorate in education were taken away from him when he had a brain tumor removed.

Robert touched the lives of so many people; he will be forever a special light in our hearts. His compassion and love for others will always be remembered.

Robs advice to each of us: “Simplify”
