Bob R Ervin

Bob was born 10th of 13 children to Hart & Kate Ervin on May 11, 1923 in Havre, MT. Having been born during the depression, Bob & his family grew up with very little. He got himself through high school while living away from home & working to support himself.

Bob served in the Army during WWII and then married the love of his life, Lorraine LaSalle in 1947. They had 3 children, Scott, Crystal & Sam (Leslie) they raised mainly in Edmonds, WA, after deciding to give up on the snowy & cold Montana winters in the 50’s. Bob has 8 grandchildren, 18 great grandchildren, numerous nieces & nephews with a special relationship/bond with his loving niece, Nina Clevidence from McMinnville, OR. Always being a staunch Ford man led to the majority of his working career being for the Ford Motor Co. Bob very much enjoyed travelling, fishing, camping & dancing. Bob has been so fortunate to have many wonderful people in his life: church members & the Church, neighbors, friends & family.

Predeceased by wife in July 2007 & son in Feb. 2009.

Survived by his 2 daughters & his youngest sibling, Donna Reed from Havre, MT.

We feel very blessed to have had Bob with us for nearly 93 years & are grateful he left us peacefully to be reunited with so many loved ones who have been waiting for him in glorious Heaven.
