Bobby loved to tell stories and could weave a tale in vivid detail. Building things with wood and fishing were his favorite pastimes. But most of all, he loved sharing Jesus with others and wanted to know where each person he talked with would spend eternity.
In 2014, he moved to Trussville to live with his daughter Paigh and started attending Church of the Highlands. One of his greatest accomplishments was reading the bible cover to cover, just finishing it for the 5th time Dec. 28, 2017.

Paigh, Bubba, and family,
Our prayers are with each of you. Many of us will never forget this man, along with Miss Janie, and the influence he had . Now,he is reunited with Janie, and gets to ask Jesus those questions he wanted to know the answers.
