Robert William Walter September 2, 1978 - September 28, 2025 Robert William Walter, known to many as Bobby, was born on September 2, 1978, and entered into rest on September 28, 2025. He is survived by his mother, Jacqueline; father, James; stepmother, Tammy; siblings Tanya, Kristin (Shawna), Shelia, Jessica, Amanda, and Tyler; as well as many aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews, and friends. He was preceded in death by his grandparents, Patricia and William Winkworth, and Patricia and Robert Walter. Bobby grew up in Omaha, Nebraska. After graduating, he entered the workforce and explored various fields of construction. It was during this time that he discovered his passion for painting-something he loved and took great pride in. With a heart full of hope and faith, Bobby made the decision to move to Minnesota, believing it would give him the opportunity to start fresh and find success. Most importantly, the move brought him closer to his family, the most cherished and precious part of his life. In Minnesota, Bobby established Blacksmith Painting LLC and built a reputation for his craftsmanship and dedication. Bobby also had a deep love for the outdoors. He found peace in nature, especially while fishing, and spent much of his time surrounded by it. Gifted with a beautiful singing voice, Bobby loved sharing his humor and engaging in simple conversations that often left others inspired. He openly shared his personal story and was passionate about spreading God's message of faith and hope-always with his unforgettable smile. Singing was his lifelong passion. Bobby became the lead singer and a respected member of two bands: O.G.M. (One Good Man) and Tantrum. A true rockstar at heart, he touched many lives through his music and the powerful lyrics he wrote. At 46, Bobby chose to retire his painting shoes and ladders, deciding to focus on his bucket list and personal goals. He found his home in Paynesville, Minnesota, where-through the support of his community-he gained newfound friends and extended family at Cornerstone Church, Crystal Hills Church, and the Recovery Center. Bobby passed away a sober man, having returned to the stage to sing in the church choir. He fulfilled his wish of reuniting his family and spreading his message of God's love, forgiveness, mercy, and hope. He passed away peacefully. His final words were, "I'm OK. I'm calm, watching football." He accomplished his goals. Bobby will forever be loved, missed, and remembered by all who knew and loved him If you are unable to attend the service in person the service will be live streamed - here is the link. https://www.washburn-mcreavy.com/obituaries/robert-walter-14/#!/PhotosVideos The Lord's Prayer Our Father, who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy Name. Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done, On earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, As we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, And the power, And the glory, Forever and ever. Amen
