“I am deeply saddened by the passing of Bob Funk Senior, a true Oklahoma giant. His impact on our state will be felt for generations. I had the honor of serving alongside Bob on the board of the Oklahoma Youth Expo, where his unwavering generosity and commitment to young people in agriculture were nothing short of extraordinary. His support for Oklahoma’s youth was unmatched, and his belief in the power of opportunity helped shape countless lives.
Bob was a tireless businessman who never lost sight of what mattered most, people. Through Express Employment Professionals, he helped millions find meaningful work. He truly understood the dignity and hope that a good job brings. He was a passionate advocate for agriculture, business, and the promise of Oklahoma. Bob believed in this state, its people, and its future—and he backed that belief with action, every single day. He will be greatly missed.”
