Read More	Robert Chaussee Walz ("Grampy Bob") died of congestive heart failure on July 9, 2005, in Salt Lake City, Utah. He was a loving father, grandfather, great-grandfather, uncle, brother, and friend. His greatest joy in life was spending time with family, friends, and new acquaintances alike. Bob added spice to the lives of those who knew him. After high school and a year at the University of South Dakota, he took a job with the City of Vermillion. Across the street from city hall was a bowling alley, and it was there he began a relationship with Jean DeHaven, his high school math teacher. Their later marriage in Great Falls, Montana, where Bob served in the Army during World War II, was proof that great things can begin in unusual places. Bob and Jean had three sons, Robert DeHaven of Kansas City, Missouri; Stewart Chaussee of Salt Lake City, Utah; and Clark Allen. Bob was loved by his daughters-in-law and granddaughters, Merrill (Robert) and Juli Ann (Devan) Monroe, Mary Beth (Stewart) and Ashley Marie, and Julie (Clark) and Sarah Ruth. He was also loved by his great-grandson, David Michael Monroe. After a career in public service in Vermillion and Brookings, South Dakota, Bob moved with Jean to Salt Lake City to be near Ashley Marie and her parents. After Jean's death in 1991, Bob continued to live in Salt Lake City and spent the last seven plus years among friends at the Parklane Apartments. Known for his teasing sense of humor and collection of zany tee shirts and sweatshirts, Bob was loved by many. In addition to his sons and their wives, his granddaughters, and his great-grandson, Bob is survived by his nieces, Kristin Anderson, Carolyn Wickens, Linda Ames, and Julie Condon. He is also survived by his sister Glen Farmer. Grampy Bob finally has peace and quiet. Bob and his family are grateful to the residents and staff of the Parklane Apartments, to CareSource (hospice), to Home Options Senior Health Care, to his long-time physician and friend, Dr. Frank Yanowitz, and to family and friends for their love and support. In lieu of flowers, donations to the American Heart Association are suggested. Memorial services were held Saturday, August 6, 2005, at the Parklane Apartments. Funeral arrangements are provided by Evans & Early Mortuary. Private interment. Desert News, Salt Lake City UT Friday, Aug. 5, 2005 (online)
