Bob James Aebischer, age 81, of Mangum, passed away late Wednesday evening, April 14, 2010, at the home of his daughter.
Mr. Aebischer was born in Granite, Oklahoma on November 22, 1928, to Ernest James and Fern Amanda L. (Haynes) Aebischer.

On September 27, 1948, he was inducted into the United States Navy where he proudly served his country for the next four years during the Korean War.
