Robert "Robbie" Hadlock, 44, of Yuma, lost his battle with cancer on June 9, 2015. He was born to Reginald and Bonnie Hadlock on January 25, 1971.
Robbie was a graduate of Yuma High School and later earned a Bachelor's degree in Business Management from the University of Phoenix. Recently Robbie earned Recognition of Dedication to the City of Yuma and Outstanding Service to the Utilities Department; where he has worked for 12 years.
Robbie was preceded in death by his mother, Bonnie Hadlock, and sister, Brenda Hadlock. By his side were his dad, Gene Hadlock; wife, Tara Hadlock and children, Amanda Hadlock, Paul Morris and Reggie Hadlock. Robbie is also survived by his son, Connor Hadlock; daughter, Sadie Hadlock (King). Robbie held a special place in his heart for his in-laws, Sam and Sue Charles and for his God Parents, Betty and Jerry McAdams.
Robbie had a great love for riding his motorcycle, experiencing a cross country trip just a year ago. He was proud to be considered a member of the Border Jumpers Motorcycle Club; which he has been president of the Yuma Chapter for 3 years. He leaves behind many brothers who loved and respected him.
A celebration of Robbie's life will be held at Yuma Mortuary on June 20, 2015 at 11:00 a.m. Robbie's hope was one day a cure for his son's diabetes would be found; therefore, in lieu of flower, he wanted donations to be made to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
