Robert Frederick Nolte Jr. ’56

Body

Bob died Nov. 12, 2005, in Burlington, Iowa.

A graduate of Maplewood (Mo.) High School, he entered Princeton with our class and eventually received his bachelor's degree in marketing from the University of Missouri. Although he worked in various fields, the major part of his career was spent as senior programmer/analyst with the Iowa Army Ammunition Plant.

A 44-year member of St. Luke's United Church of Christ, he served as treasurer and later president of the Church Council and sang in the choir for 44 years. He volunteered at the Great River Medical Center, the citywide Paint-A-Thon and the yearly CROP Walk, and was a member of the Bel Canto Chorale for many years.

Bob is survived by his wife of 44 years, Sandra Lee Rolf Nolte; his daughter, Leann; and his sister, Jane Louise Dreiling. The class extends sincere condolences to his family.
