Robert Allan Owens, 64, of King George, VA, died Monday, May 5, 2025.

Robert was happiest when he was outdoors. He grew up trapping, hunting and fishing with his father and grandfather and perfected his skills throughout his life.  He was generous with his knowledge, mentoring many. His love of hunting took him to Maine, Florida, Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Colorado, Alaska, Canada and Africa.  He could do anything and had jobs in several different fields; he was very talented in autobody repair and painting, and an exceptional fabricator/welder. He most recently worked for Jett III Contracting Services, Colonial Beach, VA, and Total Machine LLC, King George, VA.  This year he became a Life Member of the Colonial Beach Volunteer Fire Department, where he was a volunteer for more than 20 years. He loved serving with his brother and sister firefighters.

He greeted everyone with a smile and was always willing to offer a helping hand. He will be missed by many, especially his family, his former and current co-workers, his CBVFD family, his many hunting and fishing friends, and those who knew Robert’s good heart and spirit.

Robert was preceded in death by his parents, Woody and Shirley Owens; infant brother John Owens, and brother Ed Owens.  He is survived by sisters Cindy Owens Bagley (Mike) and Rita Owens, brother Ersel Owens (Mary), and nine nieces and nephews.

A memorial service will be held at a later date.
