Robert Louis Wedo was born July 17, 1937, to Charles and Margaret (Sampson) Wedo in Postville. Robert attended Postville Community school and began working at age 11 at the Postville bowling alley.

Bob was united in marriage to Audrey Riehle July 19, 1958, in Decorah. After returning from the service, he began working for Hygrade, where he stayed for 23 years when they closed their doors in 1983. While at Hygrade he also milked cows for Lyle Zieman for five years. After that he attended Area 1 Technical School for his certification for plumbing and heating. He started working at Postville Good Samaritan following his certification course.
