Published by Legacy Remembers from May 15 to May 16, 2014.

Robert Lowell Cantrell, age 65, went home on May 13, 2014, to be with his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He was born December 10, 1948 to Robert Eli Cantrell and Gwendolyn Margie Cantrell. He was survived by his precious and loving wife of 45 years, Deborah Cantrell, married June 22, 1968.

He completed apprenticeship school at Local Union 198 and remained a member for 46 years. He was a plumbing inspector for the city of Baton Rouge for thirteen years. During this time he received his associate's degree at the University of Michigan. He also taught apprenticeship school at Local Union 198 for 5 years.

I am so very sorry to hear that Bobby had passed away. I remember our wonderful and exciting times that we had during our Brazosport days. Our little comedy skit that we did, the gospel singing, church choir, and many other times. Bobby introduced me to the Mustang world. I sadly lost track of Bobby but every time the subject of Mustangs was brought up, I thought of Bobby. God bless your family. Our prayers are with you. Heaven is much happier today. Bobby has gone home to spread his humor and smile with the angels.

Debbie and family:
We are sorry for the loss of Bobby. He was a great friend. I have known Bobby all of my life. We went to school, church, and apprenticeship school together. We worked with each other at the City of Baton Rouge, and taught apprentices the craft and skills of the plumbing trade. We also worked together out of Local 198 at home and across the country. He always had a smile on his face. We will miss him.

God bless and take care,

Bobby and Connie
