Bob Heuisler Jr. Gettysburg, PA Obituary,Death:DMV Mourns Phenomenal Actor
Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, and the Mid-Atlantic film scene mourn the passing of Bob Heuisler Jr., a man whose life was defined by dedicated public service and a passionate second act as a character actor.
Born and raised in Baltimore, Bob fulfilled a childhood dream by joining the Maryland State Police. His distinguished 30-year career in public service spanned uniformed patrol, CID, Narcotics, and training before he retired in 2000. He continued his service with the Department of Homeland Security until 2019.
In retirement, Bob channeled his real-world experience into a successful pursuit of acting. His authoritative presence and authenticity made him a natural for roles depicting law enforcement and military figures. Film fans will recognize him from projects like “Night Haul,” “Baltimore Siege,” and notably, the action film “Black Thunder.”
Bob Heuisler Jr.’s journey—from the streets of Baltimore as a trooper to the film sets portraying them—was remarkable. He is remembered not just as a phenomenal actor, but as a devoted public servant who brought invaluable realism to his craft. Our condolences go to his family, friends, and all who were touched by his life of service and performance.
