Elder Passed By: Elezebeth Denise


             Robert Livingston passed away at age 85 on September 26, 2011.We can say he lived a long, happy life. Bob was born in Independence, Kansas on May 26, 1927. He joined the U.S. army at 18, then came to Alaska in 1947, where he met and married his beloved Annabelle. Soon after, they moved to Cold Bay, Alaska, where they had three beautiful children. He moved to Chignik Bay, Alaska while working for power plant companies along the Alaska Peninsula.
He lived in Chignik surrounded by loving people. Bob was always social and concerned with the safety and well-being of the people of Chignik. No matter what, he would help a person with anything. He loved to help out at the school. Bob encouraged the children of the village to strive for more; he always had something good to say.
                                                    Rest In Peace
Robert Livingston
May 26, 1927 – September 26, 2011

  1. Dear Elezebeth,
    You wrote a very nice article about my Dad! Thank you very much. Yes, you are right: The wonderful people of Chignik Bay loved my Pa. And he did encourage the children of Chignik Bay to strive for more, to aim higher. It is difficult to believe that he is actually gone. I am hoping to erect a gravestone in memory of Pa in the Russian Orthodox cemetery in Chignik Bay this spring. Thank you again for you kind words Elezebeth! Mike www.michaellivingston.net
