Robert R. Mabry, 53, Celina, Ohio, died suddenly on Sunday, January 3, 2016, at his residence.

He was born January 27, 1962, in Louisa, Kentucky, the son of Arvil and Clara (Browning) Mabry.

He is survived by his mother, Clara Mabry of Saint Marys; by his siblings: James Eddie Mabry of Louisa, Kentucky; Larry "LT" Mabry of Saint Marys; by his twin sister, Rita (Mark) Kinstle of Celina; by his sister and best friend, Sheri (Adam) Reid of Celina. He is survived by his girlfriend, Christy Dircksen of Celina; by many nieces and nephews and great-nieces and nephews. He is survived by his grandsons, Dalton, Dyllan and Daxtyn Fink.

He was preceded in death by his father; by a brother, Arvil "Paul" Mabry, Jr.; by a nephew, Tommy Mabry; by a great-nephew, Dylan Everage.

Robert was a guitar player and singer, who for many years performed gospel music with Mabry Ministries. His performances were heartfelt and emotional, and he used his music to bring the message of salvation to many people. His favorite song to perform was "Go Rest High on That Mountain" by Vince Gill, and when he sang the lyrics "I know your life on earth was troubled/And only you could know the pain/You weren't afraid to face the Devil/You were no stranger to the rain/," the audience felt his strong belief in redemption through the Lord.

He was a very kind, caring and giving man, and will be missed by all who knew him.

Funeral rites will be held 10:30 A.M. Friday, January 8, 2016, at the Miller Funeral Home, 1605 Celina Road, Saint Marys, Ohio, with family friend Dan Griffin officiating. Burial will follow at Elm Grove Cemetery.

Friends may call from 2-4 and 6-8 P.M. Thursday at the funeral home.
