Robert Pigott Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Carpenter & Ford Funeral Home on Dec. 11, 2025.
Robert "Bob" Marion Pigott, 86, of Fairmont, WV, passed away on December 10, 2025. He was born on January 29, 1939, in Shinnston, WV, to Howard and Bertha (Kitzmiller) Pigott.
He is survived by his wife of 66 years, Bernadine Grogg Pigott; his son, Mark Howard Pigott, and wife Kathy of Rock Hill, SC; his daughter-in-law, Lisa Morris Pigott; his granddaughters, Robyn Dawn Pigott, Lauren Jessica Pigott Vernik and husband Dima, Cassandra Michelle Pigott, and Victoria Felmet; and great-grandchildren Madison, Seamus, Asher, Rory, and Leo.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Howard and Bertha Kitzmiller Pigott; his brother, Preston "Junior" Kitzmiller; his sisters, Maxine Kearns and Josephine Harvey; and his son, Robert Alan Pigott.
After graduating from Lumberport High School in Harrison County, WV, he began a career as a master electrician, dedicating more than 40 years to his work. He met Bernadine during his time at Westinghouse, where he often found reasons to stop by her area to talk. They married and enjoyed a long, happy life together in Fairmont, WV.
Known for his quiet and steady demeanor, Bob always put his family first. Outside of work, he found peace and quiet in hunting and fishing on the weekends and passed that down to his sons.
Bob was a beloved husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather. He will be dearly missed by all his family, especially his wife of 66 years.
Family and friends may gather at The Carpenter and Ford Funeral Home, 209 Merchant Street, Fairmont, West Virginia, on Friday, December 12, 2025, from 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm. A private service will take place at a later time. Interment will follow the private service at the Mt. Zion Cemetery.
Carpenter and Ford Funeral Home is honored to serve The Pigott Family.
