Norman Harvey Robbs, of Sparks, Oklahoma, passed away peacefully at his home on June 22, 2025, at the age of 77. He was born on July 10, 1947, in Fort Collins, Colorado, to Harvey and Lois (Renz) Robbs.

Norman spent his early years in Colorado and Wyoming, where he developed a lifelong love for farming and the outdoors. On April 7, 1968, he married the love of his life, Adele Louise Robbs. Together they shared 53 years of marriage before her passing on October 16, 2021. Norman and Adele raised two daughters, Kathy and Julie, and spent three decades living in Texas and Colorado before eventually settling in Oklahoma.

A proud member of the National Guard, Norman served his country with honor. He was a hardworking man who farmed and drove trucks with Adele by his side. Known as a jack of all trades, Norman had an incredible ability to fix just about anything. He had a passion for Harley Davidson motorcycles, four-wheeling in the mountains, and lending a helping hand wherever he could. His deep faith and devotion led him to be very active in his church, especially in the men's ministry, where he found great fellowship and purpose.

Norman was preceded in death by his parents, Harvey and Lois Robbs, his beloved wife, Adele and his grandson, Joshua Morris.

He is survived by his two daughters, Kathy Ansted and Julie Waters and her husband, Dan; seven grandchildren, Kasha Hornsby and her husband, Justin, Kaylee VanCampen and husband Tyler, Aaron Waters and wife Taylor, Chris Waters and wife Felicia, Aaron Morris and wife Skye, Andrew Morris and wife Keeley, and Lacee Miller and husband Tyler; twenty great-grandchildren; one brother, Darrell Robbs and his wife, Diane; two sisters, Judy Robbs and Gloria Seidell and her husband, Doug and his beloved dog, Choco. He also leaves behind a host of extended family members and dear friends who will miss him deeply.

A celebration of Norman’s life will be held on July 5, 2025, please contact family for details.
