Robert Kolbo ’64, born in Santa Monica, Calif., in 1943, died in Red Bluff, Calif., on July 29, 2009. He passed away in his sleep after suffering a stroke. Bob was married to his wife, Suellen, for 46 years. They met while in high school and waited until just before his senior year at SCU before marrying. They had four daughters who survive him. Three live locally in Red Bluff: Ginger Olds, with her husband Robert and sons Josh and Jeremy; Erin Bracells, with her daughter Taylor and son Trevor; and Erin’s twin Kathy Garrison in Los Molinos with her children Miranda, Abby, Andrew and William. Another daughter, Kelly Terry, lives in Pacific Grove, Calif., as does her daughter Amy Gonzalez. Their oldest granddaughter, Valerie Gonzalez, now lives in San Diego, after living here and attending Red Bluff High School. Grandpa will be sorely missed. Bob went to work in his father’s construction business in Los Gatos right after college. He eventually took over that company in Silicon Valley, building many apartments and commercial buildings. He moved to development, specializing in small infill housing complexes. After time spent in Santa Cruz and Oakdale, he ‘retired’ at age 43. However one project after another popped up, and his retirement was filled with many more happy days of building. Bob and Sue came to Red Bluff 12 years ago, and the family followed. They bought a beautiful ranch at the end of Bend Ferry Road which was recently purchased by BLM and will be a wilderness area park close to town for all to enjoy.
