His attractive wife yesterday visited him at the county jail. She carried her young baby with her in a pink blanket.

Following obituary for Bobby Trujillo:

Bobby Trujillo dies at 51
CASPER - J. R. (Bobby Joe) Trujillo, the "King of the Road," died Tuesday in Memorial Hospital. He was 51.
Trujillo was a white wings or street cleaner, the last one in Wyoming and a vanishing breed nation wide. A genial man known to almost everyone in the city, he took pride in his work and did it well.
Trujillo would patrol the downtown streets daily with his broom and trash barrel. He claimed to know everybody in town and it was verified by almost constant shouts from motorists, friends and acquaintances. "I always try to smile at everyone," Trujillo would say. And he did.
Born Aug. 22, 1922 in Amalla, N. M., he came to Casper with his parents at the age of one. He spent all of his life here.
Last December, he suffered a heart attack and pneumonia. He was released in mid-March and urged by his doctor to rest. He didn't. "Ya gotta work and make a living." he would explain. "I like to do this all the time. Nobody bothers me."
Trujillo worked for the city for nine years. He was a member of St. Anthony's Catholic Church and Knights of Columbus Council No. 1563 in Casper.
Trujillo was a bachelor and lived at 634 South Wolcott. He is survived by three sisters, Mrs. Bert (Cora) Chavez of Nyssa. Ore., Mrs. Fred Struck of Casper, and Mrs. Garlon (Maryann) McCarty of Fountain, Colo; and two brothers, Louis R. Trujillo of Casper, and George Trujillo of Tucson. Ariz.
The Rosary will be recited at 6:30 p.m. Thursday at Memorial Chapel and the funeral mass will be celebrated at 9:30 a.m. Friday at St Anthony's Catholic Church, with the Rev. Charles Brady as celebrant Burial will be in Highland Cemetery.
