Robert Franklyn
Wyman
Jan 26, 1933 — Sep 27, 2019
Yuma
On Friday, September 27,2019, Robert Franklyn (Bob) Wyman, devoted husband and father, passed away at the age of 86.
Bob was born in Portland, Oregon on January 26, 1933 to Edward and Geneva Wyman. After a few depression era related moves, the family settled in the Seattle area.
Bob married the love of his life, Natalie in Nordland, Washington in 1952. He served in the US Army during the Korean Conflict and had many memories of his time stationed in Tokyo. After his discharge, he and Natalie moved to Walla Walla, Washington where he attended Walla Walla College. Bob graduated from Los Angeles College of Mortuary Science in 1959 and worked for Brown Mortuary Service until his retirement in 1994. Bob and Natalie retired to Marrowstone Island and later moved south to Yuma, Arizona where he spent his last fifteen years.
In addition to being an active member of the Chehalis Port Townsend, and Yuma Seventh-day Adventist Churches, Bob was a past President of the Washington State Funeral Directors Association and also past local and State President of Kiwanis Club.
Bob enjoyed many hobbies, but his passion was bird watching. He could identify dozens of species by their song alone. He never passed up an opportunity to assist a friend or neighbor, and most acquaintances would acknowledge his love of story telling. Bob also loved music and regularly led out in group and special music for church and other organizations.
Robert Wyman was predeceased by his siblings Jim and Marjorie. He is survived by his wife Natalie, brother Douglas, daughter Pamela Almandinger, sons David and Ted, four grandchildren, and two great grandchildren.
