The son of Adolph and Ethel (Stevens) Jacot, Bob was born on a farm near Creighton, Nebraska, on Oct. 14, 1925. He was baptized in 1930 at Christ Lutheran Church, Bazile Mills. In 1936 the Jacot family moved to Iowa, first at a farm near Kensett, and later near Hampton and Sheffield. He attended grade school at Bolan and graduated from Hansell High School in 1942. In the fall of 1942 he enrolled at Iowa State College in Ames to study agricultural engineering, but was called back to the family farm after completing only two quarters.

Bob was inducted into the U.S. Army in 1946. After basic training in Fort Knox, Kentucky, he was shipped to an ordnance unit at Chonju, Korea, where he drove trucks and worked at the motor pool repairing trucks, jeeps and cars until his discharge in 1948. He worked at Tractor Supply in Mason City from 1948 until 1950.

Bob met Darlene Hollatz at a dance at the Surf in Clear Lake on Jan. 4, 1946. They were married at St. John’s Lutheran Church, rural Garner, on Oct. 7, 1949. He was confirmed at Bethlehem Lutheran Church in Mason City on April 2, 1950. Bob and Darlene are the parents of two daughters — Janice and Carol.

In 1951 they moved to a farm southeast of Carpenter. Bob and Darlene raised hogs, corn, soybeans and oats. In 1958 Bob was named the Mitchell County Outstanding Young Farmer of 1957 by the Osage Junior Chamber of Commerce. In 1972 the Iowa Pork Producers Association named him as a 1971 Master Pork Producer.

Bob was very active in 4-H, serving as leader of the Newburg Beavers from 1954 to 1969.

During that time his club was named Mitchell County Outstanding Club several years in a row.

He then served as a project leader and on the county committee, and in 1982 was presented the 4-H Silver Clover Award.

Bob was a member of Immanuel Lutheran Church in St. Ansgar, where he served as head trustee for several years, and was chairman of the building committee when the new educational wing was built in 1971-72. He helped organize the church’s Friendship Club and was its first president. Bob also started the church’s tape ministry program. He was a member of Immanuel’s Men’s Club, LLL, and circuit delegate to a synodical convention.

Bob and Darlene retired from raising hogs in 1979, and in 1987 from crop farming. He never retired from driving John Deere tractors and loved participating in several area tractor drives. Other hobbies included photography, traveling, and fishing. They enjoyed trips from California to Maine, and Texas to Canada, and spent several winters in Mesa, Arizona. Bob enjoyed fishing, especially in the trout stream near St. Ansgar.

Bob was a World War II veteran and proud member of the American Legion in St. Ansgar, and was part of the 2010 Honor Flight from Mason City that toured Washington, D.C, including the World War II Memorial.

Bob is survived by his wife Darlene, St. Ansgar; two daughters and their spouses, Janice (David) Luhrs, Green Bay, Wisconsin, and Carol (Norman) Pahl, St. Ansgar; six grandchildren: Karl (Melissa) Luhrs, Ryan (Sarah) Luhrs, Karla (Jay) Doty, Laura Pahl, Genean (Jon) Bohl, and Jonathan Pahl; seven great-grandchildren: David Luhrs, Samuel Luhrs, Cole Doty, Brendan Doty, Lauren Doty, Daniel Bohl, and Kimberly Bohl; one sister, Lola Yelland, Sheffield; one sister-in-law Norma Jean (Daryl) Gobeli, Mason City; and several cousins, nieces and nephews.
