Bobbie Waynette McGrew Garinger, age 44 left this town from Salem Hospital to go to her home in Heaven 10-24-2020 at 9:15 pm. She was born in Paragould, Arkansas to Ray Franklin McGrew Sr. and Patsy (Lawrence) McGrew on 12-19-1975. Her big brother "Frankie" who named her despite what Mom said or Granny Lawrence.
Mother to Alan Ray, David Eli, and Jonathon Wayne. A mom who always put her children first. She was very caring, very optimistic about every situation that arose. She was the bravest, strongest, most kind-hearted person we know.
Bobbie was very well loved by all that knew her, she was very determined, very kind till you made her MAD, and very, very stubborn. She fought for her children a battle that no one knew. Diagnosed with esophagus cancer she had her first of many surgeries May 29, 2018. She loved her Miss Molly and Bandit (dog-cat), all her best friends. She had a very big heart, always ready to help, a great care giver, NEVER took NO for an answer, and made sure you were fed. She loved the Ocean, camping, shopping after Thanksgiving, she had a weird sense of humor like her Dad, and liked to play jokes. She was a little mommy to sister Monica who came into our lives in 1984, very good little and big sister.
Preceded in death by her Dad Ray Franklin Sr., grandparents, T.H.-Aliene McGrew, Ed-Tommy Lawrence, aunts Jean, Betty, Jackie, uncles Clay, Jerry, Bobby, Charles, Edward, W.C. and James, Harold.
Surviving are her husband Nathanael, sons Alan (Rachelle), David, and Jon. Brother Ray Franklin Jr. (Claire) sister Monica Batsell (Beau), nephew Jacob, niece Lucca, nephew Brody. Many best friends, friends and coworkers.
She loved good burgers, Chinese and Mexican food. Very determined lady, worked full time, went to college while raising three boys. She got her BA in Heathcare Admin. and helped care for her dad.
She will be missed always. Always loved and always in our hearts. She was beautiful inside and out. RIP Bobbie
