He was happily married to Linda Jo Dever (nee Shier) for 55 years. They had three children together, which were the lights of their life.
Bobby worked for Greeley Gas Company, which eventually became Atmos Energy, for almost 40 years. During that time, he went successfully from being a ditch digger to Regional Operations Director.
He is survived by his children and grandchildren. Children are Traci Autumn Dever, April Nicol Dever, and Robert Shawn Dever. Grandchildren are Benjamin Tyler Dever, Zachary Tyler Dever, and Alexander Robert Buckman.
His humor, goodwill toward others, and loving faith will sorely be missed.
