Robert George Fahrenkrug, of Mendota Heights, MN passed away peacefully on December 21 2024 in Salt Lake City, UT after a brief illness.
Bob was born on August 2, 1935 to George and Elizabeth Fahrenkrug in Neenah, WI. Bob grew up with 2 sisters, Betty Jane and Barbara and 2 brothers, Tom(Ruth) and Bill(Sandy). Bob married Eileen Kerrigan, also from Neenah, WI on April 4 1959 and was blessed by 65 years of marriage.
Bob was also blessed with 5 daughters, Infant Mary, Julie Lawrence, Laura Beilke (Loren), Nancy Roatch (Jeff) and Sharon Bryant (Rob); 6 grandchildren; Sarah Wicks (Nathan), Jennifer Swanson (Jordan), David Beilke (Lucy) Brittany Lawrence (Tyler) and Samantha & Jordyn Bryant. Bob was also blessed with 7 great grandchildren; Karl, Ellis & Philip Wicks, Sienna & Bridger Swanson and Anna & Addie Beilke.
Bob humbly stated he had many successes in life; his businesses, his hole in one in golf, playing his tenor saxophone with Louie Armstrong in Waupaca, WI to name a few, but he always stated his greatest success was his family. Bob was happiest when his family & friends were at his house, along with Eileen hosting Christmas parties, Corn Roasts, and pretty much everything in between.
The family would like to extend our deepest appreciation to his wonderful caregivers from this year; Our Lady of Peace, St Paul, Lilydale Senior Living, Mendota Heights, Heart to Home, Mendota Heights and Beacon Crest Senior Living, Salt Lake City. Mom & Dad will both be greatly missed by many, but we are thankful they are reunited again and were able to celebrate Christmas together with Mary, Julie and many other beloved family & friends.
Mass of Christian Buial will be held at Assumption Church, 51 7th St W, St Paul, MN 55102 on January 11th 2025 at 11am.
A celebration of life will be held in Neenah this summer and a private interment at a later date

Laura, Nancy, Sharon. I'm sorry to hear of your dad's passing. The old neighborhood had so many good times, hard to believe they are now all passed on. Dad and Mom always enjoyed your mom/dad's company. May he rest in peace and be reunited with Eileen, Julie & Mary. Love to you all.
