Our loving Matriarch, Bobbie Jean Stockton, passed away on January 11, 2025 at 87 years old.

Today, I'm celebrating the incredible memories I shared with you, Bob — a vibrant, outspoken, and wonderfully entertaining individual. Our long conversations during slow moments at the jewelry store will be forever preserved in my mind. Although we lost touch in recent years, your passing has reminded me of the great impact you had on my life. I'll always treasure the time we spent together. Rest easy, friend.
