Robert Wagner Obituary

Robert Wagner

Born in Greeley, Colorado, and a proud graduate of Longmont High School, Robert Wagner passed away peacefully at St. Anthony’s Hospital, surrounded by his loving family and friends.

Robert will be remembered for his kind heart, creative spirit, and his deep love for music — especially the timeless sounds of Def Leppard. He also had a lifelong passion for drawing, often as well as adding to his growing Transformers collection bringing his hobby to life. His creativity and warmth touched everyone who knew him.

Robert cherished time with his family more than anything. He is survived by his beloved wife Lanette, his daughter Sylvia, and son-in-law Jon. He is also survived by Starla and Dennis Ledbetter, and their children Chyanne and Cody Ledbetter; Shereen Hickman; his aunt Sandie Wagner; and Kevin, Phillip, and Monica Wagner. Each of them held a special place in his heart.

A funeral service to honor Robert’s life will be held on October 18th at 11:00 am at Risen Saviour Lutheran Church.

Robert’s life was filled with love, hard-work, laughter, and an everlasting love for those closest to him. His gentle spirit and the joy he brought to others will be remembered always. May he rest in peace, surrounded by the music and memories he loved so dearly.
