Robert Bebout was born October 4, 1939 in New York. He grew up in California. He graduated from high school in Beaumont, CA in 1957. He attended Shasta Community College, where he started his career in underground mining. This career took him to many places throughout the USA over his lifetime. After marrying Sarah Bebout in 1988, they lived in Colorado Springs, Utah, Dallas, Taiwan, and Big Timber, Montana, where he worked doing underground construction. After about 17 years, they returned to Northport, AL to retire. He adored his wife, children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren more than anything. Some of his hobbies included hunting, fishing, snowmobiling, traveling, working in the yard, camping, and boating. He enjoyed his Agape Sunday School class at Five Points Baptist Church where he made many friends. His special cats were Big Cat and Little Girl, who got his undivided attention for the last 19 years. He loved to piddle and could fix almost anything. He was a huge Alabama Fan and loved to eat Dreamland as he yelled Roll Tide.

Pallbearers will be Austin Bebout, Cody Bebout, Craig Woods, John Woods, Ron Rowland, and Nicholas Ecker.

Honorary pallbearers are DCH Nurses 5 Southeast, Agape Sunday School Class, Five Points Baptist Church, and Dr. Busenlehner.
