On Sunday May 29, 2022. Loving son of Claire and the late Jeffrey Scoles. Beloved brother of Erica (Josh) Dugdale, Andrea Scoles and Sara (Steve) Blessing. Cherished grandson of Betty and the late Jack Unger and the late Richard and Nina Scoles. Dear uncle of Jay, Reid, Josephine and Madalyn. Our dear nephew, cousin and friend.
Robert Jordan Scoles, 35, of St. Charles, Missouri passed away on May 29, 2022. Robert was born March 16, 1987, and grew up in St. Peters, Missouri, the youngest of 4 children and the only boy. His sisters became three “bonus” mothers looking after him, so he had no shortage of people telling him what to do.
He was named after Bobby Orr, so it was no surprise to anyone that he loved hockey, eventually playing roller hockey for many years, and becoming a loyal Blues fan. He loved superheroes starting at a young age, from the Marvel universe to DC, and could often be seen riding his big wheel around the neighborhood with his batman cape flying in the wind behind him.
Robert grew to be an avid historian, interested in American Military history. He traveled to many Revolutionary War and Civil War battle sites across the country and was a voracious reader of historical non-fiction. His interest in military history led him to joining an airsoft team and participating in missions and events with his team. He also enjoyed playing video games and particularly loved teaching his nieces and nephews how to play his favorite games, one of which was Red Dead Redemption. That game led him to his most recent interest, the American West and he dove into learning about that era with all of his being.
Family was the most important thing to Robert, and he loved his family with all of his heart. He was the cherished son of Claire Scoles and the late, great Jeffrey Scoles, loving brother to Erica (Josh) Dugdale, Andrea Scoles, and Sara (Steve) Blessing, doting uncle to Jay, Reid, Josephine and Madalyn, grandson to Betty Unger and the late Jack Unger, the late Richard Scoles, and the late Angelina Scoles, and a friend to many.

For whom may be reading, I have just found out and caught word about this tragic passing of a great friend, but more of a brother that I could’ve ever ask for especially Back in the days of us meeting. Personally, I would like to give my grievances to the family, Robert was one of my first friends in middle school, and he always spoke about history. And his love for it because of him “Robert Scoles“ I have just recently found out that I am related to Gouverneur K Warren a major general at Gettysburg. He was the savior of little round top. If it wasn’t for your extensive going looking and finding out everything that you have, I wouldn’t have looked into it. Thank you, Robert and you will be heavily missed. Godspeed.
