Barton Hobbs, 85, entered into rest February 5, 2020.
Mr. Hobbs grew up in the panhandle of Warren County, the son of the late Joseph Hobbs and the late Pearl Davis Hobbs.
He was a man unafraid of work, being a farmer all his life, raising hogs, cotton & corn, while working at Jebco for 53 years. Mr. Hobbs had a quirky sense of humor and never seemed to be in a hurry. By many, he was known as "Preacher", but to his grandchildren he was "Bop Bop". Mr. Hobbs was a member of Zoar United Methodist Church.
In addition to his parents, he was predeceased by his wife, Annette Smith Hobbs; brothers, Lester Hobbs, Lee Hobbs, and Davis Hobbs; and sisters, Nora Russell, Jeannette Perdue, Bobbie Whitaker, Ann Smith, Iris King, and Doris Sleister.
