Robert W. "Bob" TREBON ~ We mourn the passing of Bob Trebon, who died on May 2nd, 2009 at the age of 74, leaving behind the legacy of a life lived well and fully to the end. His last 4 years were challenging due to lung cancer which he fought with the same intensity, vigor, & dignity with which he lived life. Bob was born on December 27th, 1934 to Bernard "Bud' and Arline (Gauthier) Trebon in St. Cloud Minnesota. At the age of 7 he moved to Seattle with his family and grew up in Wallingford where he attended Lincoln High School. Bob enlisted in the Air Force following High School and was stationed in Germany where he met his loving wife of 53 years, Kathi (Heuser).

He is also survived by his brothers Ron and Tom, his sister Cherie, his step-mother Marian, and a host of extended family members and friends. Bob was preceded in death by his parents, his sister Camille, and his brother Jim. Our Dad was special; he was the hardest working man you might ever meet. He rarely talked about himself, rarely complained about his own troubles, though he was no shrinking violet when he needed you to know something or felt strongly about something. Our dad was a working class hero and we shall all miss him greatly and remember him always in our hearts. A Mass will be held Saturday May 30th a 10:30 a.m. at Blessed Sacrament Church, 5050 8th Ave. NE, Seattle, WA 98105 In lieu of flowers, remembrances may be made to the Blessed Sacrament Dinner Program or the Republican National Committee.
