Edward R "Bob" Mooney
August 18, 1941 - May 4, 2017
Bob passed away peacefully at the University of Utah hospital on May 4th following a brain aneurysm. He was born in Pocatello on August 18, 1941 to Edward and Laura Mooney and was the oldest of five boys. He spent his childhood in Pocatello, attending school and the First Methodist Church. He graduated from Pocatello High School in 1959 and competed on the golf and ski teams. Throughout his college education, Bob studied electrical engineering. He attended Idaho State University, receiving his associate degree in 1962. He continued at the University of Idaho, earning his bachelor's degree in 1964. He earned a master's degree in 1966 at Oregon State University in Corvallis.
In 1967, Bob married Cheri Moltke and accepted a position as Principal Engineer at CH2M Hill. During this time, he learned to fly and served a dual role at CH2M Hill as both engineer and pilot. Bob and Cheri had two sons: Carson and Justin.
In 1977, Bob moved from Corvallis to Boise, where he started his own consulting business, Performance Management Alliance. He served nine years on the board at Bogus Basin and was instrumental in helping Bogus attain non-profit status.
Bob shared his passion for skiing and golf with his sons and followed their accomplishments as they competed in both sports. He also instilled in them a love of learning and was proud of their successes and their career choices. Carson is a dentist in Boise and Justin serves as Art Director for Dakine.
Following a divorce, Bob married Jeanie Medrud, an old Pocatello friend. Bob and Jeanie have resided in Boise since their marriage in 2001 and have enjoyed spending two months of each year in La Quinta, California.
Bob was included in the prestigious FAA Airmen Certification Database, which is awarded to pilots who have met or exceeded high educational, licensing, and medical standards. In 2016, Bob was appointed Executive Director of the Idaho Energy Resources Authority by Governor Otter. He was proud of his service in this agency, feeling like his efforts contributed positively to Idaho. Also in 2016, he was honored by the USGA with the Ike Grainger Award for his 25 years of volunteer work on the USGA Junior Championship Committee.
Bob is survived by his wife, Jeanie; his sons, Carson (Cori) Mooney of Boise and Justin (Ginger) Mooney of Hood River, Oregon; granddaughters Maci (Boise) and Poppy & Juniper (Hood River); stepchildren Eric (Andrea) Beach of Fort Collins, Colorado and Heather Beach and Mike Ossian of DeWitt, Iowa; step-grandsons Soren and Jake (Fort Collins); brothers Mike (Karen) Mooney of Boise, Jack (Katie) Mooney of Pocatello, and Jeff (Trish) Mooney of Pocatello; and many nieces and nephews.
