58, of Brownsburg, passed away on October 14, 2026, after a courageous battle with ALS. Robert was born on February 12, 1968 in Brazil, Indiana to Owen Schroer and Linda (Royer) Diehl.
Robert earned his undergraduate degree in mechanical engineering from Purdue University, as well as an MBA from Wesleyan University. He worked as a facilities manager for General Motors for 35 years, before retiring. An outdoorsman at heart, Robert enjoyed biking, fishing, camping, golfing and playing corn hole. He was also an outstanding cook and loved cooking on the grill and cheering on the Indianapolis Colts and Purdue Boilermakers. He will be remembered for his lasagna, and his prime rib dinners, as well as his humble, hardworking, kind, and selfless spirit who would help anyone in need.

Rob was always so helpful at CCA to me and always had a smile on his face! Thoughts are with his family!
Sending you my deepest condolences on the passing of Rob. I had the privilege of working with him years ago and he was both an incredible mentor and a good friend. I will always remember his constant positivity and brilliant one-liners that kept us all smiling. He brought so much light to our team, and he will be missed. Thoughts and prayers for you and family during this difficult time.
When I think of Rob, I think of the good times, the laughter we shared over the years. My wife and I have some wonderful memories of spending time with Rob and his wife, Christy. Whether we were visiting their home or having them over to ours for cookouts, there was always good conversation, plenty of laughs, and great company.
Rob had a wonderful sense of humor and was just one of those people you genuinely enjoyed being around. We also shared a love for the Indianapolis Colts, which gave us something else to talk about and enjoy together.
It’s funny how some of the simplest moments in life turn out to be the ones you treasure the most. Those cookouts, conversations, and laughs may have seemed like ordinary days at the time, but looking back, they were truly special.
Rob was a good man and someone I will always remember fondly. I’m grateful our paths crossed and that my wife and I had the opportunity to share those memories with him and Christy.
Rest in peace. You will be missed, but never forgotten.
