Reverend Robert Dalton Ganote Sr., age 84, of Overland Park, Kansas passed away peacefully at his daughters home in Victoria, Texas on Sunday November 14th, 2021. Robert was born July 15, 1937 in St. Joseph, Missouri to Marguerite Deeken Ganote and Jesse Dalton Ganote. Bob is survived by his daughter Lynn Embley; his daughter Laurie McMillan; his daughter Leslie (Douglas) Bell; his son Robert Jr. (Janet) Ganote; his daughter Jessie (Michael) Barrett; his grandchildren Sara Campa-Ferrio; Katherine Campa; Tony Campa, Tera Kluxen, Steve McMillan, Loren McMillan, Lindsey Petitta, Derek Bell, Amy Petitta, Jennifer Bell, Robert Ganote III, Michael Ganote, Rebecca Ganote, Kristin Ganote, David Ganote, Brittany Davenport, Colton Barrett and Jacob Barrett. Bob also leaves behind 28 great-grandchildren, all of whom will cherish his memory. Bob was preceded in death by his second wife Barbara Wells Ganote, whom he married in 1997; his father Jesse Dalton Ganote and his mother Marguerite Deeken Ganote; his brother Terry Allen Ganote; his grandchild Sean Klein; grandchild Ronni Kay Klein, and great-grandchild Scott J. McMillan "Scotty". Bob was a compassionate and charismatic man. He was saved in 1968 and called to the ministry in 1970. He attended Baptist Bible College, in Springfield Missouri. In 1972, he founded New Testament Baptist Temple in St. Joseph Missouri. Throughout his 50 years of serving the Lord, he pastored 4 churches attended 4 schools of ministry and missionary training, helped thousands of people and led hundreds to the Lord. In 2018 he retired from Sovereign Grace Baptist Church of Kansas City Missouri. He was an amazing father, grandfather, husband, friend and pastor and loved the fellowship of all of them. Bob never stopped sharing the word of God, not even in his last weakest days. With his children and grandchildren gathered around his bed, he took the last bit of strength he had and asked to be raised up and began to tell the story of David and Goliath. As he spoke, his voice became stronger and stronger and he began to act out the scene. He spoke with such vigor and detail, the family thought they were right on the battle field with David. It was beautiful and such a gift for the family. Bob leaves a legacy of the truest love and dedication to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. There is no doubt he is in heaven rejoicing. A memorial service will be held on Tuesday, December 28, 2021 at 11 AM at the Red Bridge Baptist Church, 4901 E. Red Bridge Road, Kansas City, MO.
