Born in Little Falls on December 31, 1939, Robert was a son of the late Walter and Martha (McCluskey) Wyraz.

Besides his parents, Robert was predeceased by his brothers and sisters-in-law, Walter and Helen Wyraz and John and Gertrude Wyraz; and his sister, Edwina Wyraz.

He is survived by his nephew, Thomas Wyraz and wife, Kathy of New Hartford; along with his great-nieces and great-nephews, Pamela and Kerry Maring and Thomas J. and Lisa Wyraz.

Friends and relatives are invited to attend Robert’s funeral service on Thursday morning, November 7, 2019 at 9:30AM from the chapel of the Enea & Ciaccia Family Funeral Home, 4309 Acme Road, Town of Frankfort, Ilion, NY (315) 894-8000, where prayers will be offered by Deacon James Bower.
