Allison Haimbaugh Jr. 89, Rochester, passed away at 7:45 P.M. Wednesday October 12, 2022, at his residence.

He was born on April 3, 1933 in Rochester, Indiana, where he lived most of his life. He was the cherished and only child of Allison Haimbaugh Sr. and Dorothy Jane (Moore) Haimbaugh.

He graduated from Rochester High School in 1951. He went on to work for Topps before he enlisted in the United States Air Force in 1951. He was honorably discharged in 1957. He continued his service as an Inventory Control Specialist at Grissom Air Force Base where he retired in 1995.

He found the love of his life and true soulmate when he married Sharlene Kay Shull, daughter of Paul and Opal Shull, at the Kewanna United Methodist Church on April 5, 1963. Their union of marriage produced a son and a set of twins. She preceded him in death on October 20, 2020.

Left to cherish his memory is his oldest son, Neal Haimbaugh, Culver, Indiana, his second son, Kenneth Haimbaugh, Rochester, Indiana, who moved in with our dad after mother passed to allow our Dad to live and pass away at home, his daughter, Kimberly (Kevin) Boyer, Mentone, Indiana, also remembering their grandfather are his grandchildren, Joshua (Hannah) Haimbaugh, Rochester, Indiana, Anthony “A.J.” Haimbaugh, Leiters Ford, Indiana, sons of Kenneth, Hayden (Nicole) Haimbaugh, Elkhart, Indiana, Isaac Haimbaugh, Culver, Indiana, Abigail Haimbaugh, who came in and helped care for her grandfather for the last two years and her fiance’ Kyle Corn, Bass Lake, Indiana, and Hanna Haimbaugh, Culver, Indiana, children of Neal.

Later in life he enjoyed the Grit Channel that had westerns on 24/7, Perry Mason, Mannix and his game shows. He loved having his cat, Daz, on his lap and most days took naps together. He thoroughly enjoyed watching Daz play with Snookie and got a kick out of Snookie going bat crazy watching Bob have the time of his life as an outside cat.
