Bobby Sluder
Liberty, SC

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Bobby Ross Sluder. Born on October 8, 1958, in Anderson, SC, he was a son of the late Reverend Michael Sluder.

He passed away unexpectedly on Saturday July 20, 2024, at his residence in Liberty, SC.

Those left to cherish his memory include his wife of 30 years, Cindy Sluder of the home; his mother, Jean Sluder of Seneca; his children, Chad Sluder of the home, Sheena Rampey (Jayme) of Liberty and Courtney Zuber (Michael) of Easley; a brother, Tommy Sluder (Marva) of Seneca; four grandchildren, Jaymeson Rampey, Easton Zuber, Josie Rampey, and Camryn Zuber; also surviving are numerous nieces and nephews.

In addition to his father, he was preceded in death by a sister, Susan Sluder.

Bobby’s career as a maintenance supervisor in manufacturing was at Shaw Industries until the closing of the plant. Most recently he was employed by First Quality in Anderson. He was known for his expertise in mechanics and his versatility in fixing just about anything.

A proud Army veteran, Bobby served his country with honor. He was a member of Utica Baptist Church. Beyond his professional achievements, he found his greatest joy in spending time with his family, especially his grandchildren. A diehard fan of Clemson, he was always seen cheering on his favorite team especially his grandchildren’s sporting events.

He enjoyed the simple pleasures of life, particularly the outdoors. Hunting and fishing were more than hobbies to Bobby – they were opportunities to bond with his son Chad.
