standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in

the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

1943 in Centralia, Illinois. Bob graduated from Kearney High School in Nebraska in

served in Vietnam. He completed his service as a sergeant E-5 with a Purple Heart.

Bob married Gladys Sanders in 1974 and together had a daughter, Jami.

He worked as an electrician for forty-five years and enjoyed many hobbies including

cycling, hiking, and photography. One of his many accomplishments was completing

Cycle Oregon three times. After retirement he always kept busy and stayed physically

active. Bob Loved the Lord and looked forward to attending Bible study in Springdale

every Tuesday where he met some very cherished friends. He brought joy to his family

and everyone he came to know. Bob passed away on September 12, 2023 at the age of

80 in Spokane, WA where he lived for seven years with his loving family.
