On Thursday, May 30, 2019, Robert Bob W. Fawcett, passed away peacefully at home, at the age of 75.

Robert was born on January 22, 1944, and was raised in Newcastle, WY in a large family. After meeting his wife, Karen, they moved to Worland, WY in 1974 with their children (Brian, Denise and Bobbie Jo) where he worked the remainder of his career, before retiring to Newcastle, WY.

He has three grandchildren (Andrea, Samantha and Zachery). Robert had a passion for the outdoors and loved to both hunt and fish. He was a storyteller known for his quick wit and more-than-occasional sarcasm. He will be greatly missed by those who knew and loved him.

There will be a small, family service held on June 8th at 11:00 at the New Haven Cemetery (we will be meeting at The Sundowner Inn at 9:30, leaving at 10:00, if you need assistance getting to the cemetery). After the service, Robert would like to invite friends and family to the West End in Newcastle for a drink on him. Please come after 4:00 pm to help us honor and celebrate Robert's life.
