He passed away unexpectedly at home in San Clemente, California on November 20, 2025.
Bob , a tall and handsome man, possessed the quiet, steady brilliance of a man with a heart of gold.
He earned a Bachelor’s degree in business from San Jose State College and attended Golden State University law school. An avid reader of history, he was both street and intellectually smart. Bob was the caretaker, the case manager, for all the senior family members, the one who held everyone on his shoulders with love and kindness, who gave more than he ever asked for in return. He made friends effortlessly, a bridge builder who lived with sensitivity and courage.. Bob was a proud Jew and supporter of Israel and belonged to several civil rights organizations. He was a liberal defender of the underdog.
He served as an army reservist during the Vietnam war and lived in that complicated space were obligation meets conviction. He was the number one salesman for USG, winning multiple awards and trips around the world. A true child of the 50’s who loved rock ‘n’ roll, he enjoyed travel, playing chess, and boating around the marina. He was our captain who guided us all.
Robert was predeceased by his brother Ronald Falk, six weeks before his own passing. As a devoted and loving husband, he is survived by his wife Elaine , his brother Richard Falk, and his sisters in-law Shayna Falk and Ellen Calderon. He was the uncle and great uncle to many nieces and nephews all around the country and in Israel.
Robert Adrian Falk will live in our hearts forever. His was a life well lived, a man with a loving heart.
May his memory be a blessing.
Robert Falk was interred in a private ceremony at Harbor lawn Memorial Park in Costa Mesa, California on December 8, 2025.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests the planting of trees in Israel in his name.
