Rob Carlson
October 19, 1958 ~ February 14, 2024

Rob Carlson, 65, Beloit passed away February 14, 2024. Rob was born to Charles and Lucy Carlson on October 19, 1958. He graduated from Minneapolis High School and attended Cloud County Community College. He then chose to come home to farm with his dad and brothers. He was a farmer and rancher including his custom hay business for many years. His personality was a natural to move him into sales of farm equipment and to be the “van man” delivering school supplies to schools in north central Kansas. He started migrating to the north. First stop was Delphos, followed by Glasco and final stop Beloit. He has left many friends in these areas with memories of his quick wit, generous heart and more than a few escapades and adventures to remember (but maybe not talk about).

He was preceded in death by his parents. He leaves behind three brothers; Kent Carlson (Marcia), Hesston, Steve Carlson (Pam), Chris Carlson, and sister Linda Saenger (Larry) all of Minneapolis. He has many nieces and nephews that knew they could go to Uncle Rob for anything. He also had a family of close friends – you know who you are – that he collected and held close throughout the years.

He will be missed by many and will be saving a seat for us at the bar in heaven with a beer waiting. Then we can take a ride in his Buckeye Powered Parachute.

A Celebration of Rob’s life will begin at 2:00 P.M., Saturday, March 23 at the Wells Community Center, but for now let’s raise a glass to Rob Bob. Memorials may be made to the charity of your choice and may be mailed to Wilson Family Funeral Home, P.O. Box 166, Minneapolis, KS 67467.
