imator at Burke Engineering in Sioux City. He started his own contracting business in 2001. He was a "jack of all trades" and could fix absolutely anything, from cars to building houses. He had a knack for seeing how something should work, and making it happen. He imparted this knowledge to his sons. Ronnie took great pride in his two sons, and loved spending time with them. He was a Cub Scout Leader for many years. He was an avid outdoorsman and taught them how to hunt, fish, and camp, as well as how to "fix things". The apple of his eye was his granddaughter, who is definitely grandpa's girl. He was a loyal friend to many, and everyone could always count on him to help wherever needed without being asked. He was our rock, and will be deeply missed. Left to cherish his memory are his wife, Robin; sons, Jason and Adam Bobier; granddaughter, Kaydence Bobier; his mother, Elinore Bobier; two brothers and their wives, Jerry (Jan) Bobier and Bob (Cindy) Bobier; two sisters, Donna (Tom) Bobier and Tammy Bobier; sister-in-law, Rhonda Hattig; special grandma, Ruth Brooks; nephews, Scott, Rustin, Jesse, and Joey Bobier and Cody Hattig; nieces, Angela Epting, Amy Morris, Jennifer Crisp, and April, Kila, and Heavan Bobier, and Brianna Hattig.
