Robert “Bob” Zandt, 96, died September 7, 2026.
Bob was born March 7, 1930, in Milwaukee, WI and moved to Wichita in the 1960’s. He was Vice President of Engineering at Koch Engineering until he retired.
Bob loved hunting and fishing and was an avid reader. He loved traveling and took all four of his children, individually, to the country of their choice in Europe.
Above all, he was a deeply selfless man who always put his family first. His wit and charm were unmistakenly Bob and will greatly be missed by those who knew him best.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Oscar and Eleanor Zandt; wife, Margot (Mayhack); and sister, Janet Moss.
He is survived by his four children, Judith (Michael) Wojcicki, Bob (Donna) Zandt, Patti (Kirk) Peterson, and Susan (Bob) Buckheit; grandchildren, Chris, Emily, Zach, Angie, Alexandra and Eric; and 12 great grandchildren.
