Robert Ganahl Obituary

September 18, 1930 - January 20, 2011

A resident of Rancho Palos Verdes, he was a computer programmer and life-long music lover. In retirement, he enjoyed many travels around our amazingly diverse world. He was a loving husband to Nancy; kind and patient father of Jacqueline and Joseph; and much adored grandpa of Andrew, Matthew, Alexander and Joseph Ganahl. He also leaves behind brothers, Donald, Richard, and Walter; and sister, Arlene Muise. His funeral Mass at St. John Fisher and burial at Holy Cross Cemetery in Culver City were on January 24, 2011. Donations to the American Lung Assn are appreciated.
