Robert Dean Ladden

September 9, 1954 — May 13, 2026

Robert Dean Ladden was born and raised in Cincinnati, OH, in a small neighborhood called North Fairmount. Robert passed away May 13, 2026 at 12:36 am entering the gates of heaven, he was devoted to Betty Dean, his mother and father Henry Ladden. His family called him B.O.B. he loved to tell everyone “Tighten up” and everyone knew to get to him just bring a scratch off; he loved playing 2 Pac and watching sports. Everyone knew not to call or come see him on Sundays because he wasn’t going to talk long or answer the door on that day. He was a true ladies’ man. He had a pair of binoculars everywhere he went. He had a heart of gold and a smile and infectious laugh that would light up any room he went into. Bob was a straight shooter for sure, so don’t ask him anything if you didn’t want the real response. He was always cracking jokes; his favorite color was red.

Bob loved all who loved him; and he loved him with some sweets. He ate more sweets, coffee and donuts than food. He was a man of few words, but when he spoke, we all knew what he was saying. He was known by every corner store and neighborhood he went in all over Cincinnati he was known for being a hot mess; crazy, loving, protective and the life of the party!

He leaves behind his twin sons, Maurice and Marcus; his sisters, Sabrina, Vera, his fav Woota, Bernadine; the twins Mishawn (aka Riley) and Jatawn (aka Big Chops); his favorite niece Jatawn (aka Snook) then comes a large host of grandchildren, great-grandchildren, other siblings, cousins, nieces, nephews and close family friends.
