Robert Wouters Leyen, M.D. Dr. Robert Wouters Leyen, aka "Dr. Bob" and "Dr. Avalanche," died Monday, April 14, 2008 in Gig Harbor, Washington. Born September 29, 1951 in Nashville, Tennessee, Robert was the only son of the late Dr. Robert Fitzwater Leyen and Wilma Wouters Leyen. He has practiced as an Orthopedic Surgeon in Tacoma and Olympia, Washington for the past 18 years with unwavering diligence, care and dedication toward providing optimal care. Robert's first love was his family. Robert and Jennifer Albright were married March 19, 1988 in Maryville, Tennessee. Their love spanned 32 years from Tennessee to Washington State and numerous points in between. Robert and Jennifer's daughter, Elizabeth, will be graduating in June with academic honors from Tacoma School of the Arts.. He actively competed in 3-Day Equestrian Eventing in Area VII and mentored many young riders. Much of his free time was spent riding his exceptional horse "Large Marge" and training his very smart Labrador retriever "B". The sight of Robert and "Large Marge" brought smiles to all who saw them. Robert will be dearly missed by his beloved wife Jennifer, his loving daughter Elizabeth, the Albright family, his cousins, Drs. Erich and Ben Wouters, and by countless close friends, colleagues, and patients from sea to shining sea and beyond. We are thankful for his life, love, kindness, generosity of spirit, and fine Christian example. A celebration of Robert's life will be held at the Gig Harbor United Methodist Church, 7400 Pioneer Way, Gig Harbor, WA 98335, at 2pm on Saturday, May 17, 2008. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Robert W. Leyen Memorial Fund at any Columbia State Bank. Arrangements are by Haven of Rest Funeral Home, Gig Harbor, WA, 253-851-9991.
