Robert Lee Furr

Robert Lee Furr, 91, of Concord, passed away Thursday, August 3, 2023 at his home, surrounded by his loving family.

Robert was born December 1, 1931 in Stanly County, North Carolina, to the late Charlie L. Furr and the late Julia Furr.

He was also preceded in death by his loving wife, Ruby Smith Furr, of over 65 years, sisters Pauline Almond and  Elma Eudy, and brother David Furr.

Robert truly loved helping people and showing them how much they were cared for. He loved working outdoors, especially on his tractor. Two of his biggest passions were farming and woodworking. Robert could tear apart and rebuild anything put in front of him, including motors and tractors.
