Yates Funeral Home Obituary:
-Robert Dwayne McGrath, 55, of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho passed away at home on Tuesday, January 23, 2018. He was born on July 3, 1962 in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho to John and Marilyn McGrath.
-He is survived by his mother, Marilyn McGrath, Father, John McGrath and step-mother, Rita. His three sisters: Lynn Charles, Teri Morris (Jack), and Gina Filler (Russ). Uncles: Arnold McGrath (Sandy), Allen McGrath (Sandra), Dale Watson (Teresa), and aunts: Gloria Schmidt, Dora Ann Powell, and several cousins. Bob was preceded in death by his grandparents Dan and Donna Watson, grandparents Merel and Perlean McGrath, uncles Eugene McGrath, Jerold McGrath, and William Watson.
-During Bob's teenage years he spent summers flying and boating around S.E. Alaska while spending this special time with his dad. During this time, he was able to really enjoy all of the thing he loved about the outdoors.
-Bob served in the U.S. Army in Anchorage, Alaska. When his tour of duty was completed he moved to Troy, Montana and went to work as a rock bolter in the underground Asco Mine, When the mine was closed he moved to Seward, Alaska and started a career as a meat cutter for Carrs' Safeway. After several years he went to work for Three Bears Foods in Wasilla, and Tok, Alaska. His last employment was with the Coeur d'Alene Casino. He really enjoyed his time there, as he said everyday was different and the people he worked with were great.
-He loved the outdoors, whether it would be hunting or fishing on his favorite trout stream, Marble Creek on the St. Joe, or fishing for salmon on the Kenai River in Alaska.
-Bob and his best buddy, Jay Scott, would spend hours and days doing what they loved, hunting, fishing, and camping. From Idaho to Alaska, he really looked forward to these special times with Jay.
-Viewing will be held on Thursday, February 1, 2018 from 6:00 to 8:00 pm at Yates Funeral Home – Hayden Chapel, Hayden, Idaho. Funeral service will be held at 10:00 am on Friday, February 2, 2018 at Yates Funeral Home – Hayden Chapel. We ask that those attending please dress casual, as Bob would want that.
