John Robert Stehman, age 73, passed away suddenly at his home on November 2, 2024. Born in Lancaster, he was the son of the late John Robert and Eunice Lorraine (Martin) Stehman, Sr.
John, who family and friends called Bob, started working at Yerger Brothers in Lititz after college, and continued on with VersaTech when they took over. He recently retired after approximately 50 years. He also held another job at Stauffers of Kissel Hill. He loved country music, particularly George Strait being his favorite artist, and he would travel to Houston to go to the rodeo if George Strait was performing.
Bob was a longtime member of the Lititz Moravian Congregation. He loved the clergy and church members and would volunteer to help out however he could. He belonged to a senior Sunday school group, and sang in the senior choir.
Bob is survived by his sister, Carolyn S. Holloway (wife of Alan Rick Holloway) of Scaly Mountain, N.C., his nephews: Vincent S. Fanghella of San Diego, CA., John M. Fanghella (husband of Rebecca A. Fanghella) of Montgomery, TX., and Tyler M. Holloway (husband of Katherine Holloway) of Milwaukee, WI.; two great nieces Emma Rose and Alyssa Ann Fanghella and two cousins: Clayton Seaman of New Mexico and Bradford Seaman of South Carolina.
A graveside service will take place on Friday, November 15, 2024 at 10am at Lititz Moravian Cemetery.

Rest in peace, my loyal cousin, I remember going to the Conway Twitty concert with you and grandpa and dad the good old 80s and you came over every Saturday evening to watch Jeffersons and All in the family. And grandma served us Neapolitan ice cream and on holidays for pineapple upside down cake and Easter coconut.

I am so very sorry to learn of Bob’s sudden passing. He and I were fellow volunteers at the Lititz Congregation’s Moravian Mission Gift Shop, and Bob was always so willing to help and so personable. He was a joy to work with. When the shop asked members of our congregation for suitable donations to sell, Bob was the first to offer two pair of vintage glass candlesticks. Bob was a wonderful Christian man. I will miss him. In Christ’s love, Pastor Carol Dague
