Robert “Berto” William Arent, age 57 of Canonsburg, PA passed away on October 4, 2021 at Washington Hospital due to complications of COVID with his family by his side. He was born on July 11, 1964 in Washington, PA, he was the son of the late Harry “Boots” Arent and Lorena (Hill) Arent. He is survived by his wife Carolyn Shawn Wright who he married on June 8, 1996. Surviving are his children Madison and Jason who brought him so much joy in his life. He will also be sadly missed by his sisters, Holly (Joe) Holmes and Christy Kemp as well as many nieces, nephews and extended family that loved him.

Berto was a 1982 graduate of Trinity High School and he proudly served in the United States Marine Corp.  In 2006, he graduated from the LPN program at Western Area Career and Technology Center. He worked as an LPN at Premier Health Center. Also, considering his love of talking to people, for the last 3 years, he truly enjoyed driving for Uber, it was a true passion for him. Berto will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved him.

Family and friends are welcome on Thursday, October 7, 2021 from 1 PM – 8 PM at Pittsburgh Cremation and Funeral Care, 3287 Washington Road, McMurray, PA 15317, (724) 260-5546.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Rob was a such a good person and a good nurse. He took good care of my grandma when she was at the health center when it was county. My work week started on Sundays and I always looked forward to working with him. He was always happy. He would always ask me, 'what's happening in Washington.' Such a nice and caring person. May God bless you and your family.

I had the honor and privilege of working with Rob at premier. He was such a good nurse. He always talked about Madison and Jason. They were the joy of his life and he was so proud of them. A verse that always gives me comfort. " Those we Love don't go away they walk Beside us everyday unseen unheard but always Near. Still Loved still missed and very dear.". My heart goes out to your family. My heart is broken that after all he went through with his health that he had to leave us from Covid. Sending Love and prayers .
