Herbert is survived by his sons; Wesley (Angela) Hobbs; Jerry (Karen) Hobbs; and his daughter Beverly (Chad) Anderson; his grandchildren; Alexander Hobbs, Sylvia Hobbs, Chase Hobbs, Kinley Hobbs, Cayson Anderson, Colson Anderson and Camden Anderson.
Herbert was preceded in death by his parents; John Garvey Hobbs and Winnie Ingram Hobbs.
An accountant with the State of Alabama, Mr. Hobbs was a member at Frazer UMC. He was known for his "dad jokes" and the way he delighted in his grandchildren. When asked, "What made him smile?" the family was quick to say, "whenever Alabama beat Auburn." A gardener who raised fruits, vegetables and roses, he also liked to cook desserts for his family.
