Robert Berg, a longtime resident of Denton, Texas, passed away peacefully in his sleep on July 4, 2026.

Born on March 3, 1933, to William Berg and Virginia Park, Robert grew up in Concord, California. Shortly after graduating from Mt. Diablo High School, he enlisted in the United States Marine Corps, where he proudly served his country as a fighter pilot until being hired by Delta Air Lines in 1960.

Robert’s globetrotting flying career spanned over three decades, ending in 1993. Upon reaching retirement, his focus shifted to owning and operating the Locust St. Grill on the Denton square. In his free time, Robert enjoyed traveling, skiing, farming, and practicing gemology, a passion he cultivated through his studies at the Gemological Institute of America.

Robert is survived by Vorawan, his loving wife of 33 years, and their children Robert Jr. and Patrick. He is also survived by his children Alan, Erik, and Suzanne.

The visitation will be held at Mulkey-Bowles-Montgomery Funeral Home in Denton on Saturday, July 11, at 10:00 A.M. Flowers may be sent to 705 N. Locust St.
