Bob Stothart Obituary

Bob Stothart was loath to concede to old age, but the inevitable caught up with him and on March 22 he died peacefully at the age of 92. Whatcom Hospice provided wonderful care helping to keep him at home in his downtown apartment so he could still visit his favorite thrift and coffee shops. Bob was preceded in death by his wife Miriam. He is survived by his sons Rob and Matt; grandchildren Aaron, Asa, Anna and Karin; and great granddaughter Kaycee. Memorials may be made to Whatcom Hospice and Hospice House.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
