Robert William Aumiller

Robert “Rob” Aumiller was born on May 14, 1987, to Richard W. Aumiller and Deborah (Thoele) Aumiller.  He entered the Kingdom Triumphant on January 6, 2023, after a long, unsuccessful battle with depression.

Rob is survived by his three children: John Harn, Amora Aumiller, and Emmitt Aumiller; his mother, Deborah Aumiller of Marion; his brother, Riley (Sommer) Aumiller of Maui, Hawaii; his sister, Allison (Jonathon) Holzapfel of Sedalia, Kentucky; nieces, Norah Aumiller, Deanna Aumiller, and Rosalie Holzapfel.

Rob is preceded in death by his father, Richard Aumiller; and his wife, Michelle Akins Aumiller.

Rob worked as an imaging technician for Southern Illinois Healthcare. He enjoyed spending time with his children. He tried to make this world a little better place by working hard and being kind, thoughtful and honest. He was a loving and caring man who brought so many people happiness. He especially loved his kids and wanted to spend his days off loving and taking care of them. He was an avid gamer and sports enthusiast.  Depression made his life difficult and did not always allow others to see the best in him. 

A celebration of Rob’s life will be held at 3:00 p.m., Sunday, January 15, 2023, at Our Redeemer Lutheran Church in Marion, with Pastor Kim Lee-Brown officiating. Burial will be at a later date at Elmwood Cemetery in Flora, Illinois.  Visitation will be from 2:00 to 3:00 p.m., Sunday, at the church.

Memorial contributions can be made to his children.

Riggin-Pillatsch & Burke Funeral Home in Carterville assisted the family with cremation services.
