Robert Jacyna, 73, passed away February 18, 2019, at the
Bear Lake Memorial Skilled Nursing Facility, Montpelier, ID.
Born September 22, 1945, in Cambridge, MA to the late Julian
and Anna Jacyna. Rob left behind his sister, Phyllis Lucina, of Chamberlain,
ME, a niece, nephews, a great-niece, his sister, Marcia Jacyna, of Adna, WA,
cousins, one who was “like a brother,” and many good friends.
Rob (aka Bob) grew up and attended schools in South Berwick,
ME, received a scholarship to MIT, served six years in the Army, and earned a
Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science.
In the mid 80’s, he sold the home he’d built in Maine, and traveled
for the rest of his life, in his motor home with his cat, working as a Seasonal
Ranger at National Parks, enjoying music festivals, campfires, and potlucks. After
buying property overlooking Bear Lake, in Garden City, UT, he spent springs and
summers loving the view, the eagles, and all wildlife.
Rob believed in Karma, practiced a high level of Transcendental
Meditation, and studied in India to become a highly trained Jyotish (Vedic)
Astrologer. He skied, fished, biked, hiked, played the organ and keyboard, was
stubborn, caring, helpful, and respected by others.
A Celebration of Life is planned for July 27 in Garden City,
UT.
