Robert was born the son of William and Dena (Kruizenga) De Stigter on January 16, 1938 in Everly, Iowa. He moved to Sioux City during his childhood. He attended St. Paul’s Lutheran School and graduated from East High where he met the love of his life, Marilynn.

Red owned and operated De Stigter Construction along with his son and partnered with Christensen Brothers to build bridges for 52 years. He was very proud to build several Siouxland bridges including the Fourth Street Bridge, Floyd Blvd Bridge, and the Gordon Drive Viaduct Bridge just to name a few. Red was proud to have visited all 50 states and travel internationally. He enjoyed sports and rooting for the Minnesota Twins and Morningside College. He enjoyed fishing, hunting, golfing, camping, gardening, raising gladiolas, and collecting glass. His greatest joy was his family who he loved very much and checked on daily and his dogs, who he met at the rainbow bridge to heaven. Red was proud to have built his own home and helped his children build theirs. He will be missed down at Johnnie Mars where he enjoyed breakfast each morning for years. He was a longtime member of Westminster Presbyterian Church and the Cutter Couples Club. He served on the Board of Trustees and as an Elder at church.
