By NewsPress Now

Robert George “Bob” Bolin went to be with Jesus peacefully at home, surrounded by his family, on Jan. 12, 2024.

Bob was born in St. Joseph Aug. 22, 1943, to James Harold and Naomi Marie (Sipes) Bolin. He graduated from Central High School in 1961 and married his high school sweetheart, Laura Jane Horner, that same year. They raised three rambunctious sons (Rob, Mike, and Chip) while sharing 62 wonderful years of marriage.

Bob loved Jesus, Jane, his sons, the U.S.A., along with trains, the mountains, John Wayne, and Lonesome Dove. His pride and joy were his grandchildren.

Bob was preceded in death by his parents and sister, Patty Bolin Roach.

He leaves behind to mourn his passing and cherish his memory: his wife, Jane; sons, Rob (Sue), Mike, Chip (Karey); grandchildren, Mallory Seisser (Tim), Jake Bolin, Ben Bolin, C.C. Bolin, and Libby Bolin.
