His parents were Antonin Gaston and Mary Jenkins Guillerman (lovingly called Tony and Jesse). He was the fourth of seven children, who were all boys except for one girl, Joan.
He attended St. Agnes school in Uniontown, KY until eighth grade. He then attended St. Mary’s High School, and in his last year there he enrolled in St. Mary’s seminary program, near Louisville, KY.

After retirement, Bob and Betty enjoyed spending time with their grandchildren and traveling. The highlight of his life was a pilgrimage trip he and Betty took to the Holy Land.

1 thought on “Robert Jenkins Guillerman”
Bob was a friend and classmate at St. Agnes School. We were in most of the grades and high school together except when my family and I moved to Evansville Indiana during World War 2. We lost touch over the years and then reconnected a few years ago through his brother. We enjoyed a few phone calls and notes. I just learned of his death today. I am sorrowful but know he is in Heaven with Betty.
My sincere condolences to the family. May he rest in peace. Barbara Alvey Campbell
