In his young life, Bob was married to Linda Murrah, with whom he had three sons: Robert McCord, Edward McCord, and Steven McCord. Robert has one son, Bobby, Edward and his wife, Lynne, have two children: Cory McCord and Casey McCord Lopez. Steven and his wife, Becky, have three children: Adam McCord, Elizabeth McCord, and Alexandria McCord.
Bob was later married to Lynnie Petty “Pugs” McCord, to whom he was married for 52 years. Together, they had a daughter, Junlynn “Tookie” McCord Carmichael (William G. Carmichael). Thirteen years later, they were blessed with a precious son, Talmadge Ray “Tal” McCord. Tookie has two children: Robert Blaine Baker and Brandi Baker Rodgers (Zane Rodgers). Brandi has two precious children: Elliot Blaire Rodgers (4 yrs) and Jackson Cole Rodgers (2 yrs). On some of Bob’s lowest days, Elliot and Jackson were the spark that kept him going. The love of his wife, children, family, and friends gave him the will to keep fighting for his life.
Bob is survived by one brother, Glenn “Butch” Farrar, who resides in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. He was preceded in death by his parents, two sisters, and a brother. He was also preceded in death by his precious youngest son, Talmadge Ray McCord.
Bob was a faithful and loving husband, father, grandfather, great grandfather, friend, and Christian, who loved the Lord. Fifteen years ago, Bob was blessed to receive a “new” heart by transplant from someone who had already gone on to be with the Lord. There were many hard and trying times, but God led us along this path and blessed us with fifteen more years to have Bob here with us. God placed many amazing people in our lives to help us along the way. We give many thanks to his doctors and nurses (especially Dr. Hector Ventura, Dr. Stacy Mandras, Raylene Vasquez, and the entire Ochsner transplant team, who all became like family to us.). There are too many others to name, but they have been such a blessing to Bob and our entire family.
