HUBBARD - Robert B. Thomson, 56 of Hubbard, passed away on Sunday, Oct. 11, 2026, at St. Joseph Warren Hospital.

Bob was born March 30, 1970, in Sharon, Pa., the son of Robert B. and Judith A. Wimer Thomson.

He was a 1989 graduate of Hubbard High School.

For many years, he was an Operations Supervisor at Old Dominion Freight Lines in North Jackson.

Bob enjoyed Jeeps, the outdoors, family trips to Disney and BMX racing, where he won many trophies and state titles. He was a passionate Steelers fan and a true connoisseur of Frosted Flakes. Most of all, he loved spending time with his children and family. He enjoyed creating elaborate themed birthday parties for his kids.

He will be fondly remembered and sadly missed by his family: his wife, the former Tammy Tabak, whom he married Aug. 9, 2003; his children, Brodie Thomson and Delaney Thomson, both of Hubbard; his mother-in-law, Elaine Tabak of Campbell; and his mother, Judith A. Thomson of Liberty Township. He will also be missed by his beloved dogs, Gus and Milo. He also leaves his brother-in-law, John (Lisa) Tabak of Austintown; sister-in-law, Michele (Mark) Ackworth of Hubbard; his sister, Stacey Fabrizio of Hubbard; and brother-in-law, Steven Glenn of Hubbard.

He will also be missed by aunts, uncles, cousins and several nieces and nephews to whom he was proudly known as “UB,” or Uncle Bob.

Besides his father, he was preceded in death by his sister, Dawn Shaffer, and father-in-law, John Tabak Sr.

There will be services held at 6 p.m. Monday, Oct. 19, 2026, with calling hours prior to the service from 4 to 6 p.m. at Stewart-Kyle Funeral Home.
