Robert Heitstuman

Robert Dale Heitstuman (Bob or Bobby) was born to Jerry and Carol Heitstuman May 8, 1970 and went home to be with his Lord December 9, 2022 at the age of 52.  He had battled liver cancer for a little over a year.

Bob was the youngest of three children and could be heard often saying, “I’m the baby, gotta love me.”  Bob grew up and attended schools in Moscow, graduating at Moscow High School.  Bob was a pizza delivery driver, cooked at the original Wingers when it first opened at Eastside Marketplace, attended LCSC for appliance repair and did appliance repair in Lewiston before deciding that wasn’t a good fit and landed at SEL in Pullman.

Bob loved his family and loved getting together to celebrate birthdays and holidays. Bob loved to go fishing, whether with his friend Ryan and his son Tanner, or by himself. He loved going up on Moscow Mountain and doing some target shooting with his nephew Michael.

Bob is preceded in death by his mother Carol (Weyen) Heitstuman, maternal grandparents Billy and Avia Weyen and paternal grandparents Oscar and Shorty Heitstuman.  Bob is survived by his father Jerry Heitstuman, sister Tracie Gourley (husband Gale), brother Bill Heitstuman and nephews Michael Gourley (wife Kalie) and Aaron Gourley, along with several Uncles and Aunts and lots of cousins.  Bob was an organ donor and his corneas were donated to give a blind person an opportunity to see.

The memorial service for Bob will be at the Moscow Church of the Nazarene, Monday December 19th at 11:00 am.  He will be laid to rest at Moscow Cemetery. In lieu of flowers donations can be made to Shriners Children’s Hospital or the Moscow Church of the Nazarene.
