Robert "Bob" Michael Quast, 56, was called home to the Lord on November 29, 2014. Visitation will be from 6 to 8 p.m., Tuesday, December 2, 2014, at Restland-Coppell Funeral Home and the funeral will be at 1 p.m., December 3, 2014, at SoulThirst Church (formerly Christ Our Savior) in Coppell with burial in Rolling Oaks Memorial Cemetery in Coppell.

Bob was born in Dallas, Texas, to the late Robert and Bonnie Quast. He attended Dallas schools and his beloved father, Robert Quast, was a teacher and then principal in Dallas ISD for more than 42 years. Bob told people frequently he was a “PK” which stood for “principal’s kid”.

Bob had a memorable childhood with his oldest friend from the age of 3, Clay Llewellyn, and many others. After graduating from Hillcrest High School, Bob choose Texas A&M University to study chemical engineering. Bob loved Aggieland and there he met his longtime friend, Bill Jester. Bill and Bob entertained many with their stories of shenanigans.

Bob graduated from Texas A&M, class of 1980, with a B.S. in Chemical Engineering. He truly became an Aggie for life. He was extremely proud of his education and alma mater. Although he left A&M; A&M never left his heart. Rarely would you see him without maroon clothing or his Aggie baseball cap. Bob was known to influence many football games (at least in his mind) by the old A&M shirt and cap he wore for game time.

In 1984, he met Cheryl Ann Swanzy and their lives were joined together on June 22, 1985 in Austin, Texas. Together they had three children; Stephanie, Allison, and Michael. Bob loved his wife and children with all his heart and enjoyed raising them in the communities of Germantown, Tennessee and then Coppell, Texas. Bob loved attending all the kids’ activities - soccer, baseball, softball, football games, and dance recitals. Bob and his family faithfully attended Christ Our Savior Lutheran Church in Coppell and his church family was important part of his life.

Above all, Bob was known for the importance he placed on family and friends. He was the man that everyone loved and felt connected to. He was a true man of God that believed in the Lord with all his heart and soul. His role as a father was to teach his children to love the Lord with all their heart, to trust and follow God’s Word. His children best describe him as a man with simple desires, only wanting to spend time and show his love for his family and friends, cook, play some golf, fish and hunt and watch his Aggies play.

Survivors include his wife of 29 years, Cheryl Quast; daughters, Stephanie Fleisher and husband, Scott, and Allison Quast; son, Michael Quast; granddaughter, Anna Claire Fleisher; his mother, Bonnie Quast; sister, Carole Hlozek and husband, John; nieces, Amy and Michelle Hlozek; and many friends.
