The family of Bob Ellei has invited the Patriot Guard to pay Honor to this American Hero, a true patriot who served in three wars.  It will be our Honor to do so.

Bob served in the U.S. Navy during World War II, the Korean and Vietnam Wars. Bob retired from the Navy as a Machinist Mate First Class (MM1).

Bob was born in Milwaukee on 31 July 1926 and was a resident of Bullhead City when he entered Eternal Rest on 4 June 2015

After his retirement from the Navy Bob was involved in many activities, some of which included being a member of the VFW, American Legion and Elks Lodge. His hobbies included golf, bowling, fishing, dancing and gambling.

Bob is survived by his wife of fifty-one years, Clara and Sister Donna. Bob also leaves behind numerous relatives including nieces, nephews, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and great-great-grandchildren.
