Full Obituary: Robert C. SEISS (Age 90) Bob passed away peacefully from natural causes on December 2, 2012. He was born on March 1, 1922 at Deaconess Hospital to Charles and Bertha Seiss.

Bob and his wife, Winifred, traveled to California and Arizona for the winters and also went on several cruises early in their retirement. Their main relaxation came at their place at Gypsy Bay along the shore of the Pend Oreille River near Sandpoint, ID. Here they enjoyed entertaining family and friends every summer.

As a member of the Moonshriners, he participated in many local community parades. He also spent many hours volunteering at the Moonshriners Elephant Ear Booth at the Interstate Fair. He was proud of the fact that they were supporting the Shriners Hospital for Children. Bob is survived by his wife, Winifred; son, David Seiss; stepdaughter, Patricia LaMay; sister, Eleanor Schofield; nieces, Linda LaValley, Chris and Anne Schofield; nephews, Andy and Gordon Schofield; cousins, Roger, Judy and Nancy Paine.
