Bobby was an Army Veteran who served in the Vietnam War, a proud Member of the Teamsters Union Local 41, and worked at Churchill Truck Lines for the majority of his career.
In his younger years, on Friday nights you would find him in the bowling alley and on Saturdays you could usually find a good game of cards in the cigarette smoke-filled dining room of the Cain house. Bob had many hobbies, building model cars, bowling (getting a 300 game in 2005), golf (getting a hole in one in 1986), and most recently rebuilding his shed after storm damage. Bob loved to "debate" anything, but politics were his passion. He was so looking forward to voting in this upcoming election. He left many legacies behind, not the least of which was the lesson that he taught us all to "latch the screen door".
Bobby was preceded in death by his wife, Judy; son, Mike Willcoxson; grandson, Chris Bartholomew; his parents; brother, Dell; and sister, Dixie.
Bob leaves behind his children, Kelli Cain (Stephanie), Gary Cain (Mary Elizabeth), Shelly Cassels, and Misty Kirwan (Dave); his grandchildren, Frank Katsulis (Gabriela), Dylan Stuckey (Crystal), Kaitlyn Siebenmorgen (Colton), Daniel Sweet, and Josie Cain; great grandchildren, Leilani Katsulis, Giovanni Katsulis, Emmajean Stuckey, and Kash Siebenmorgen; and many more family and friends who will miss him terribly.
