d. September 14, 2022

Robert (Bob) Paul Meidinger, 80, Bismarck, died September 14 th , 2022 with his loving son by his side.

Bob was born on May 8 th , 1942 in Bismarck, ND to Paul and Bernice Meidinger. He graduated from Mandan High School in 1960. The fall after high school he proudly enlisted in the United States Air Force and served for 4 years.

On July 25 th , 1970, Bob married Mary Ann Peterson of Minneapolis, MN in Bismarck, ND. They were blessed with 2 sons, Erik and Trent.

To pay for the constant upkeep of the cabin, he held several positions with the State of ND at the State Library, State Radio, and Office of Management and Budget before retiring in June, 1999.
