Robert M. Nelson, 73

Robert M. Nelson, 73, of Kellogg, Idaho, beloved husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather. son and brother, passed away August 3, 2022 at the family home of Kellogg.  He was born March 25, 1949 in Kellogg; Bob was the son of Robert and Laura (Oberg) Nelson, Sr.

Bob was an avid golfer, never turning down a chance to swing a club!  He always enjoyed his kids and grandkids coming by to visit.  Bob really enjoyed the laughter that always came with them!  His great whit and fun loving spirit will be forever missed!

Bob is survived by his loving wife of twenty-three years Patti; his sons Mike (Lori), Paul (Christina), Tony (Amy) and daughter Jami (Shayne); his mother Laura; brother David (Joanne); sister Nancy (Pat); fourteen grandchildren and thirteen great-grandchildren.  He was preceded in death by his wife Shirley, father Bob Nelson, Sr. and his brother Larry.
