Bob Kramer, a puppeteer who delighted youngsters for decades, passed away on January 27, 2023, at the age of 77.

On Friday, January 20, 2023, St. Louis puppeteer Bob Kramer perished in a house fire. Bob Kramer’s Marionettes is one of the longest-running puppet shows in the nation, having thrilled audiences for nearly 60 years.

Bob Kramer, whose marionette performances have captivated generations of children and adults, perished in the fire that destroyed his Central West End house and theater on January 20. He was 77.

Kramer’s sister received a phone call on Friday from the St. Louis Medical Examiner confirming that the body discovered in the fire was indeed his.

Kramer shared ownership of Bob Kramer’s Marionnettes, a renowned St. Louis institution that gave performances both domestically and abroad.

Douglas “Dug” Feltch, who managed to escape the fire and required medical attention for smoke inhalation, served as his business and personal partner.

A GoFundMe has been created to help generates funds for the family:

Hello my name is Thomas. I live across the alley in St Louis where last night there was a tragic fire that appears to have destroyed everything at the Bob Kramer’s Marionettes on Laclede. Please donate to help.

He leaves behind his sister and five nieces and nephews. Jack, an older brother, passed away before.

Amerman stated that a memorial service for him will likely take place in the spring. Information will be posted on the Bob Kramer’s Marionnettes Facebook page.
