Wentzel, Robert Glenn
Robert suffered from emphysema and heart failure before his death.
He was married and the father of two boys and two girls.
He was divorced at the time of his death.
Bob lived in Seattle most of his life and worked as chief engineer on
commercial fishing boats out of Seattle during many trips to Alaska. He worked at
commercial refrigeration and on fish processing ships when he was not on a fishing boat. He was
commissioned once by a Seattle boat builder to fly to Kuwait on a six week trip to facilitate the delivery
of new fishing boats.
For hobbies, Bob enjoyed sport fishing and building model ships.
By his request, his remains were cremated and his ashes were spread in the Pacific Ocean.
