Kimberton Fire Co mourns the passing of past Chief Robert G. Dobson

By Deputy Chief Chuck Fields
June 18, 2026

Our Fire Department family is saddened by the loss of past Chief Robert G. Dobson.

He served his community as a firefighter and went on to hold numerous leadership roles, including membership secretary, Lieutenant, Captain, Assistant Chief and ultimately Fire Chief - as position he proudly held for 20 years. He was a proud member of the Chester County Fire Chiefs Association and served on the volunteer committee of the International Association of Fire Chiefs.

Bob was a cherished pillar of the community, always ready to help anyone in need or make you laugh with a perfectly timed quip. He loved to take his granddaughters to Disney World and embarked on over twenty Disney cruises and was a Disney Vacation Club member since 1995. His work with SCM and National Foam made him a world traveler, taking him to almost every state and across the globe.

A celebration of Bob's Life will be held at the Kimberton Fire Station in the Covered Bridge Room at 2276 Kimberton Road, Phoenixville, PA on Sunday, July 12, 2026 at 1:00 PM. The family invites all that knew him to attend and share their favorite memories. Please wear something red (his favorite color) a:nd absolutely no black.

And as Bob would always say, "Stay out of Trouble"
