Robert Peter Csakany, 90, of Bethlehem Township, passed away peacefully and surrounded by family on Tuesday, May 24, 2016.
He was the husband of Ethel Csakany, who preceded him in death in September 2015. He was born in Bethlehem on Aug. 9, 1925 to the late Louis Csakany and Stella Kiss Csakany. Bob, in addition to being a loving husband and father, worked for Bethlehem Steel for 38 years and served his country in the Army during World War II. He was a gentle man loved by many, whose great pleasure was spending time with his family. He will be remembered fondly for his kindness, his grace on the dance floor, the joy he derived from working in his yard and his love of sport. The family is particularly grateful for the compassionate care provided by Dr. Timothy Scharle and Dr. Anna Niewiarowska and their staffs.
