ST. GEORGE - Robert Ralston Bringhurst returned to his Father in heaven on December 19, 2008.
Bob was born in Springville, Utah on July 20, 1920. He served in the military 35 years including four years in World War II. Most of his time was spent in the South Pacific. After coming home, he worked for the National Guard as Administrative Assistant for 32 years in the 116th Engineers. He retired as a Chief Warrant Officer.
He was born to William and Bella Bird Bringhurst. Bob was the 6th child of ten children, all deceased except for one sister, Betty Haws, who resides in Tooele, Utah.

Bob was cared for by his physician, Dr. Rignell, for 30 years. He was a wonderful friend to him as well as being his care giver.
We would also like to thank Kolob Care Center for their cheerful, sweet care they gave to Bob.
Bob loved life, friends, and family. He loved hunting, fishing, sports and a game of Sluf with his brothers. He also enjoyed a game of Rook with friends until the Alzheimers took over his mind. He had a quick wit. Everyone who knew him enjoyed him. He was a great father and husband.
He held many positions in the Church. He was First Counselor in the Snow Canyon Ward. He was High Priest Group Leader three times. His comment was as he had to keep doing it until he got it right. He and his wife, Helen, served a Stake mission. They also served in the Baptistry in the Temple.
We know your brothers have dealt you a hand of cards and have been waiting for you to join them. We will miss you but we know you are in a better place.
