Bob Giggey Johnson passed away December 12, 2015. He was born January 9, 1971 to James and Mary Johnson in Seattle Washington and had three siblings Erick, Jesse, and Marianne. He grew up going to Evergreen High school and graduated in 1988. After high school he decided to join the Navy, his job was a guide on the USS Constitution Boston Harbor. Once he was done serving his time in the Navy for 4 years, he attended college at Pullman, Washington. This is where he met his wife to be Jennifer. She still remembers the day he pulled up in her driveway in the fall of Oct 2001, all 6’5 of him managed to get out of this tiny, little, yellow beetle. After they dated for some time they married in July of 2002. When they married they decided to leave Pullman, Washington and move to Forsyth Montana to be closer to Jennifer’s family. Bob got a job working for the Rail to Rail Transportation Company and drove all over Montana, seeing all its beauty and its tiny little towns that he didn’t even know existed. The two of them had three lovely children Laura, Nicholas, and Thomas. He absolutely loved being with his children as much as possible. One of their favorite things to do together was play board and card games. There was one card game that he knew the kids particularly liked, and that was MAD. He always said he was going to win, but the kids always managed to beat him. So Bob would say, “We have to play till I win.” In May they all flew to Florida to experience Disney World, the fun they had riding the rides and seeing the sites. If Bob wasn’t driving all over Montana, or with his wife and kids, he was sitting down reading a good book. He enjoyed seeing world and being with his family so much, he will be greatly missed by all who knew him.
Bob is preceded in death by James Boyd Johnson, Jack Henderville Johnson, Roberta Boyd Johnson, Earl Maiven Giggey, and Mary Louise Giggey.
He is survived by his mother Mary, his wife Jennifer, his brothers Erik and Jesse, his sister Marianne and his children Laura, Nicholas, and Thomas.

I met you as a new hire Conductor in 2011, and one thing was obvious within minutes: how much you loved and cared about your family. I’ll miss talking to you. You were a funny, caring, and very good person. You will be missed by all that ever had the chance to get to know you. Rest in Peace Bob.

I drove you from Baker, Mt back to Forsyth the first time I met you. You spoke of the love of your family the entire way home. We shared the common background of Washington and everything we miss about it. RIP big guy.
