It is with profound sadness that the family of Robert (Bob) Koop announce his passing on October 29, 2023 at the age of 82 years.
Bob will be lovingly remembered by his children: Cindy (Rich), Dawn (Neil) and Brenda; grandchildren: Grace, Charlotte, Sophia and Isabella; sisters Lorraine (Orest), Audrey and Debbie (Tom); as well as numerous relatives and many wonderful friends. Bob was predeceased by his brother Larry; and his parents: (Frank and Elsie).
Bob had a passion for electronics from early childhood and turned it into his life's work. With a keen desire to help others and a fascination with learning new things, he could often be found building or creating at his work bench and was known as "that guy who could fix the unfixable". Bob was also passionate about music; he was self-taught on the organ, harmonica and accordion.
Bob was also an avid walker and loved to walk through the Corn Creek Marsh trails of the Creston Valley Wildlife Management Area. Should you wish to make a donation in his honour, he would have been grateful for help to this organization.
A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.
