Bob Shiffer passed away peacefully in his sleep June 3, 2016 after battling declining health issues for many months. He was 84. A force to be reckoned with, in business or personal, he was salt of the earth mid-western stock; shrewd and keen of mind, tough as nails, a self-made man, truly one of a kind. He was an overwhelming presence; unfortunate to be on his wrong side, he was kind and helpful to those he trusted and loved. From Iowa, to the US Coast Guard during the Korean War, to the UW, to a long engineering career at Boeing and a good retirement, he lived a long and purposeful life. He was a good man, a good father, friend and husband, and will be sorely missed. He is survived by his wife Lee Anne Shiffer, son Robert Kenneth Shiffer, daughter Lee Ann Allen, granddaughter Olivia Katarina Shiffer, and his very close friend Kevin Fitz.

Please feel free to attend a memorial at The Cove in Normandy Park July 9, 2016 from 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m.
