Black Top and Delmark recording artist Robert Ward passed away Christmas Day at about 3:30 PM.

He had been ill with kidney and other problems recently, and had been in failing health since a couple of minor strokes over this past decade.

He was watching a video of a European concert appearance he had made back in the 90′s with his wife, Roberta, and she stepped into the kitchen just
a few feet away to grab a snack for them. When she returned minutes later, he was gone. Roberta said he hadn’t made a sound and passed in peace.

The Wards have 68 grandchildren and live in Dry Branch GA, about 6 miles from Macon.

Funeral arrangements are being made. Robert was a veteran of the US Army.

Donations are being accepted to assist with interment costs, they can be sent to:

Post Office Box 217
Dry Branch GA 31020
