Robert Lindow Obituary

Robert John Lindow

July 10, 1949 - Aug. 9, 2023

Robert John Lindow passed away at Benefis Healthcare on August 9, 2023, with his loving family by his side.

A Graveside Service was held in his honor Monday, August 21, 2023, at 10: 00 AM at the Fort Harrison Cemetery in Helena, MT.

Robert was born on July 10, 1949, in Saginaw, mi to John and Stella Lindow. He was raised here for most of his life alongside the rest of his siblings. As he got older, he attended Reese Michigan High School graduating with the class of '67. Directly following his graduation, Robert joined the U.S Army as an active duty recruit until his discharge in 1971.

Sometime in the years to follow, he met the love of his life, Carol Sue Stockham. They met at the Dearborn Inn and in 1979, they made their vows to love and cherish one another. They were married for 38 years until Carol's passing in 2017.

He reenlisted into the U.S Army Reserves from 1993-2004 as the Construction Supervisor. His time in the Army lead him all across the world, but his home was made in Craig, MT.

Robert is survived by his three sons, one sister, and four grandchildren.
