March 19th, 1975 , Robert Raymond Birdwell Jr started writing to tell his story. By first getting named after his father, he became as everyone loved and known as Jr . Sadly Jr’s pen ran out of ink sooner than ever expected. December 29th, 2024 Jr took his last breath that morning of but was able to open his heavenly beautiful blue eyes to see his (deceased) parents Robert Birdwell Sr. and Peggy Simmons with open arms waiting for him.
Jr was born and raised in Evansville Indiana. He was a crazy/goofy/funny kind of kid that no matter what room you walked into everyone was laughing and smiling. He grew and played around with his beloved 9 siblings (Angela Thompson, Michael Thompson, Charlie (Angie) Fark, Angie Armitage, Eric (Felicia) Smith, Brian (Jamie) Birdwell, Amanda Schmit, Virginia *Jenny* Goodmon, Russell (Kayla) Birdwell) in which jr was the second boy born to both his parents. They all had a special type of bond with their brother no one could ever describe. while growing up In Jrs earlier years he met the Barrett family in which he grew inacceptable to and stayed long-term best friends with James Barrett and his family. Jr attended both Central and Harrison High School.
Shortly After high school Jr fell in love with his coparent Christina Birdwell and they both ended up having three amazing blonde headed boys that went and gave Jr some beautiful daughter in-laws and many grandchildren, Robert *Tyler* (Mia, Aria,Elijah,Kieran,Noah and Kanan) Birdwell, Dylan (Keeya) Birdwell and Christopher (Kayla,Raelynn,Maeleigh and Bryson) Birdwell . In 2008 Jr fell in love all over again to his wife of 15 years Roxann Birdwell within that marriage he gained two amazing stepsons and a beautiful stepdaughter in which the boys gave Jr some more daughter in-laws and all of them together so many more grandchildren. Devin (Kristy,Chloe,Mya) Mitchell, Kendra Mitchell (Tonio and Kyahr Burns) Deshaun (Kelsi,Addalyse and Ka’Shaun) Mitchell. Later in life Jr reunited with his long, lost son Blake Aeberle . Jr was loved by so many cousins, nieces(great), nephews(great) and more friends you can count.
Jr spent his last couple years going down to Bucks drinking a beer and playing pool was one of his favorite things to do but also he loved going riding his tandem bicycle around town, playing darts, basketball and going fishing with his boys and buddies. So many things Jr loved to do but the most important thing he would take over anything is to spend the day with his grandchildren bouncing them off his belly one more time.
