Robert Murray Osborne was born in Nashville Tennessee on September 16, 1942 and died

Osborne. He was a 1960 graduate of Father Ryan High School and went on to graduate from
M.T.S.U. where he majored in history and political science. He was a proud U.S Veteran of 20
years, having served both in the Air Force and Army, primarily in Germany, before retiring in
1994.
Robert (Bob) was preceded in death by his parents, his wife Ursula Osborne, and his brothers Jim and Dennis (Cotton) Osborne.

He is survived by his brothers, Jerry, Frank (Donna), Tim (Mitzi), John (Teresa), and Kenny (Amy) Osborne, all residing in Nashville, David (Donita) Osborne of Murfreesboro, TN, and Michael (Patti) Osborne of Aberdeen, South Dakota. Bob, as he was known to his brothers and friends, was a kind man,
with a good sense of humor, who loved family. As his brother Jerry said,“He was my brother, but more than that, he was my best friend”. He will be missed.
