A beloved member of the community, long known for bringing holiday cheer to all, passed away last Friday.
Robert “Bobby” Emmett Cowell, 76, passed away on July 17 at Missouri Baptist Hospital in Town and Country, Missouri.
For the past 50 years, Cowell was well known for serving in the area as one of Santa’s helpers. And for many a wondering child and their family, he was considered the “real” one.
