Robert Barringer, 83, of Turlock, passed away at Elness Convalescent Hospital. Bob was born in the Bronx, New York to Dudley and Anna Barringer.
He graduated from a Technical High School in New York that specialized in aviation. He left home and joined the Air Force, where he served in many places around the world, including service in the Korean War.

After his military service Bob worked thirty-nine years for PacBell (now AT&T) as a supervisor and trainer in communications systems.
A tough, proud veteran, he was a very intelligent man with strong Christian morals and values. "Grandpa Bob" was at the birth of his grand kids and every birthday party. He loved his family and they loved him very much. They are thankful for all the love and support he has given them throughout the years. His memory will live on forever in their hearts.
Bob was preceded in death by his parents.
He is survived by his wife of sixty-four years, Mary Barringer; their three children, Kenny (Debbie) Barringer, Kevin Barringer, and Kristi Barringer, all of Turlock; two grandchildren; six great grandchildren; and a sister, Dolores Grindell.
