Robert Sherman Bramlett, affectionately known as Bob, was born on March 21, 1960, in Memphis, TN, and departed this world peacefully surrounded by his loved ones at his home in Southaven, MS, on March 5, 2025. His life was a testament to strong family bonds, unwavering faith, and deep love for others. A devoted member of Getwell Church, Bob exemplified a life filled with purpose and grace.
Growing up in Oxford, MS, Bob was shaped into the remarkable man he became, attending College Hill Academy before graduating from Oxford High School. He furthered his education at The University of Mississippi, where he proudly joined the Sigma Alpha Epsilon (SAE) fraternity. Bob often fondly reminisced about the joys of his childhood, from accompanying his father on rounds at Bramlett Hospital to working on the Bramlett Family Farm.
Bob's professional journey began in Florida, where he honed his skills before founding The Landcare Group, Inc. As CEO, he poured his heart and soul into nurturing his business, creating a legacy that mirrored his dedication and work ethic. His true passions were evident in the time spent with friends on the golf course and memorable weekends at his beloved lake house in Sardis, MS. Bob's greatest achievement was building that family retreat, transforming it into a sanctuary for gathering, hunting, fishing, and unforgettable boat rides. Through his efforts, Bob didn’t just create a place; he cultivated cherished memories that will be cherished forever.
At the heart of Bob’s life was his family. A devoted husband, father, and grandfather, he was lovingly referred to as KBob by his grandchildren. He is survived by his beloved wife, Michele Bramlett; children, Jacob Taylor Bramlett (Nicole) of Hernando, MS, Robert Nicholas Bramlett (Piper) of Oxford, MS, and Brittney Weatherly (Joe) of Hernando, MS; grandchildren, Addie Jo Weatherly, Mack Weatherly, and Lachlan Bramlett; siblings Brenda Bramlett of Shelbyville, TN, Bonnie Hasson of Easley, SC, and Julian Chandler Bramlett Jr. of Charlotte, TN; and many treasured nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his father, Dr. Julian Chandler Bramlett, Sr., and mother, Mary Earle Bramlett.
Friends and family are invited to join in a visitation on March 11, 2025, at Brantle Funeral Home in Olive Branch, MS, from 11 AM to 1 PM. A memorial service celebrating Bob's extraordinary life will follow, officiated by Pastor Bill Beavers. He will be laid to rest at Oxford Memorial Cemetery.
Living by the words of Psalm 23, Bob embraced life with courage and kindness: “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.”
In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made in Bob's memory to MD Anderson Cancer Center, honoring his legacy of love and compassion.
Bob Bramlett will be profoundly missed but will forever live on in the hearts of those he touched.
