Obituary Notice

October 27, 2010 By Ben Sclair

Robert Sater

Robert Norman Sater (Bob) 5/11/26 – 10/16/10 Bob passed away peacefully, leaving behind many wonderful memories for all to treasure. He graduated from Lincoln High School in 1944. As an all around well known athlete in town, he was thrilled to be a part of the First Grid-Go-Round in 1943. He enlisted into the USENavy after graduation serving in the South Pacific. Bob entered CPS, where he played first string center on the basketball team. He married the love of his life, Helen Christopherson in 1953. Bob became an owner/agent in the insurance field, in Poulsbo and Tacoma, where he retired in 1991. As a “Old Jock”, Bob and his friends revived “The Old Jock’s Club”, gathering at times throughout the year to share their memories. Reading was a big part of his life, watching golf and college sports, plus the many happy times that were spent at their Fragaria beach home. Bob was a gentle, kind and lovable soul and his dry sense of humor was one of a kind. He will always be known as the “Late Logger Great”. He leaves behind his wife, Helen Sater, loving daughter Carrie, two wonderful grandchildren, Ryan and Rachel Jacobson, and a large extended loving family and many wonderful friends. He was a true friend to all, who will never be forgotten. A celebration of Bob’s life will be held Saturday October 30, 2010, at the Tacoma Elks at 2:00pm. Any donations would be appreciated to the American Heart Association .
