Robert "Bob" Loe, 65, completed his Earthly journey on October 26, 2012, surrounded by family and close friends, in his long anticipated and newly finished "man cave." Bob was born on November 20, 1946, in Fargo, ND, to Alfred and Margaret (Finke) Loe. Bob grew up on the Loe Farm near Perley, MN, and graduated from Hendrum (MN) High School in 1964, where he participated in football, basketball, and baseball. Upon graduating, Bob immediately enlisted in the United States Navy, serving 4 years working on the flight deck, as part of the submarine hunter killer group, and as an airplane power plant mechanic. Upon his return from serving, Bob worked for a short time at Anderson Pontiac, and then for a short time at McLaughlin's RV. Bob furthered his experience working for Larry's Transmission until 1974, when he took a leap of faith, and became self-employed, starting what would become his professional legacy, Bob's Repair.
