We recently learned about the passing of Robert C. Bacher ’47. This brother, who lived in the Pittsburgh area and was an avid
supporter of Kappa Sig, passed away in 2012 at the age of 88.
Bacher was a World War II Army Air Corps veteran and a retired vice president of operations for Bell Atlantic after 42 years of service.
A longtime member of Highland Country Club and past president, he was also a former member of the board of directors of Suburban General Hospital and a longtime volunteer at the St. Teresa Parish Festival.
He was the husband for 64 years to Faith A. (Geipel) Bacher; father of Barbara Ann Bacher, Jeanne Audrey Bacher and the late William Robert Bacher (survived by wife, Diane); grandfather of Jennifer (Rich) Eberst, Brian (Cyrill) Bacher and Rebecca (Dan) Whiting; and great-grandfather of Caralynn, Juliana, Jonah and Noah.
