Pastor Robert “Bob” Dale Frymire, 61, passed away suddenly on
Saturday, January 27, 2024, in Destin, Florida.
He was born September 2, 1962, in Wood River, Illinois, to William and
Katherine (Ward) Frymire. He married Starla Roberts on April 1, 1983.
Bob began his career as an Architectural Draftsman and in 1996, went
into full-time ministry as a Children’s Pastor. He served at Tri-County
Assembly in Fairfield, Ohio, from 1996-2021, as Children’s and
Executive Pastor. From there, he continued as a Children and Family
Pastor at Ocala First Assembly in Ocala, Florida.
Bob completed many marathons, Tough Mudder, and a 50-mile Ultra
Run. He also enjoyed riding his bike everyday. He was a big St. Louis
Cardinal fan. But his favorite pastime was with his son playing catch,
pitching in their batting cage and going to watch him play baseball. His
special moments were always centered around his children and playing
outside with his grandchildren. But most importantly, his days were
ended with praying specifically for each of his children and their
families.
Bob’s passion in ministry was teaching kids about Jesus and church
outreach. He truly lived out the scripture “Go into the highways and
byways and compel them to come in that my house will be filled.”
Along with his wife, he is survived by his daughters, Taryn Frymire,
Tahnee (Cris) Simanca, Teena (Jeremy) Pacheco, Christia Frymire; son,
Ja’Mere Frymire; grandchildren, Madison Frymire, Parker Simanca,
Amelia Pacheco, Theo Robert (T-Bob) Simanca, and Penelope Pacheco;
and sisters, Brenda Russell and Julie Palmer.
Bob was preceded in death by his parents and brothers, Richard
Frymire and Gary Frymire.
A celebration of life service will be held on 11:00 a.m., Saturday,
February 3, 2024, at Ocala First Assembly, 1827 NE 14 th Street, Ocala,
Florida. Visitation will be held one hour prior to service beginning at
