Bob was an amazing man with a real passion for life and, once he became interested in something, his obsession with learning everything about it was all consuming. We made a list as a family of all the things that caught his eye over the years—golf, bowling, geocaching, painting, building model airplanes, flying small motorized airplanes, obtained his small pilot license, teaching himself how to sail, making flies for fly fishing, downhill skiing, camping, genealogy, square dancing, motorcycle riding, Texas Hold-Em poker, bird watching (especially those Eagles nesting on the Facebook live web-cam), cooking (he made a killer chicken schnitzel), and, of course, Pickle Ball, to name a few. A real renaissance man, Bob will be missed by all of his friends and family.

Mr. Wagner moved his family to Lincoln in 1957, where he has enjoyed living these past 58 years. He loved nature, especially bird watching, travel, entertaining, fireworks and a great party. But most of all, he adored his “girls,” as he affectionately called his wife & three daughters.

He was a long-time communicant of Saint Jude Church, Lincoln, where we was actively involved.
