Robert Pogue Ziegler ’60

Body

Bob died Oct. 10, 2003, from congestive heart failure, the result of emphysema.

He was born in Cincinnati and served in the Army before becoming a rancher in Colorado. He and his wife, Sharon Northrup, raised quarter horses in Gunnison for nine years before moving to a ranch in Crawford, Colo., in 1980. Bob was very active in the local NPR station, KVNF, as a supporter and disc jockey, bringing bluegrass music to the North Fork Valley.

He is survived by his wife; their two sons, Jay Charles and Robert Pogue Jr.; a grandchild; and a brother, Marcus W. Ziegler III. The class extends its deepest sympathy to all the family.
