Robert Wyman

Bob Wyman, 58, of Pollock Pines, CA, blessed the world with his presence on November 1, 1959 and passed from his earthly life and into the arms of the Lord on November 14, 2017 at home surrounded by his loved ones. He courageously fought a three year battle with esophageal cancer.

Bob was born in San Jose, CA. He graduated from Santa Clara High School. He then attended an automotive trade school to pursue a career in automotive mechanics. He excelled as a Master Toyota Technician for 33 years. After retiring from Toyota he followed his dream of operating a handy man service, MGB Handyman Services, with his two brothers. For the past four years he worked as a custodian for the Placerville U. S. Postal Service.

He relocated from the Bay Area to Pollock Pines in 1988 because of his love for adventure in the outdoors. As a child he and his family spent many summers camping at Wrights Lake, which is where his love for the outdoors began. Bob loved to kayak, hike, backpack, fish, camp, go off-roading and to capture the beauty of nature with photography all along the way. He was also a skilled wood craftsman. Bob enjoyed listening to music, especially the southern rock band Lynard Skynard.

In 1991, while employed at the Toyota dealership in Placerville, he met the love of his life Mari, a.k.a. Boonie and her two young daughters. Bob took on the role as family man whole heartedly. He was a committed family man, always putting his family first.

Bob, a.k.a. Pa Pa, was a happy, loving, headstrong, venturesome, caring, friendly, spirited, humorous, selfless, pleasing, honest and full of integrity kind of guy.

“Let’s go, it’s an adventure!” “Get-r-done!” “Do it! Do it now!”
