It is with sure and certain hope in the resurrection promised by our Lord Jesus Christ that I write to you today.
At approximately 2:00 am this morning, January 17, 2012, the Very Rev. Robert Wagner died peacefully with loved ones at his side. Two Requiem Eucharist celebrations are being planned. The first will take place at Calvary Cathedral, Sioux Falls on Tuesday, January 25, 2011 at 2:00 pm. The second will take place at Emmanuel Church, Rapid City on Thursday, January 27, 2011 at 2:00 pm. Further details will be sent out as plans are finalized.
O Lamb of God, that takest away the sins of the world, have mercy upon him.
O Lamb of God, that takest away the sins of the world, have mercy upon him.
O Lamb of God, that takest away the sins of the world, grant him peace.

Canon Wagner's distinguished service to the church here included time at Good Shepherd, Sioux Falls, my current parish. Family tragedies and his own illnesses did not dull his sharp mind and vibrant personality. TLF+
