February 12, 1926 — December 5, 2015

Robert "Bob" Baukol, 89, of Moorhead, MN, died Saturday, December 5, 2015, in Essentia Health, Fargo, ND.

Robert Earl Baukol was born February 12, 1926, the son of Joe and Cora (Landsverk) Baukol, in Mahnomen County, rural Waubun, MN. He was raised there and graduated from Waubun High School. After graduation, he began farming on the family farm. On September 18, 1949, he was united in marriage to Betty Hamernik in Walworth Baptist Church in rural Ulen, MN. After their marriage they settled on the farm.

In 1955, they moved to Moorhead before establishing their home in Dilworth in 1957. Bob worked at Bridgeman's Creamery for twelve years before going to work at St. Ansgar Hospital in Moorhead in their maintenance department. In 1989, he retired and became the maintenance man at Our Savior's Lutheran Church in Moorhead where he was a longtime member.

Bob was a great handy man and had a knack for fixing and building things. He and Betty loved to go riding in the country and enjoyed dancing. Most importantly, he was a very caring man who cared deeply for his family, whether it was his wife, children, grandchildren, mother or brother.
