Bobbie L. Cross, age 58 of Pennsville, passed away on Monday, December 28, 2020. She
was born to the late Roy Mark Watson and Neva Delle (Hunter) Watson on January 23,
1962.

Bobbie attended Rains County High School in Emory, Texas where she participated in
Girls Basketball and Band. After their wedding in Texas, they headed East, living in
Pottstown, Pennsylvania for 14 years before settling in Pennsville. In her role as
Supervisor of the Pennsville School System's "JustKids" program, Bobbie endeared
herself to so many through the care of their children. For 20+ years, she watched and
help raise many of the children that passed through the community school system and
"Miss Bobbie" could be found at many home sporting events... just to check on "her
kids."

Bobbie loved sports, both participating and watching. She played in the coed Pennsville
Rec Volleyball, often refereeing after her playing days. She was an avid Cowboys fan,
but had a soft spot in that big heart of hers for her [new hometown] Philadelphia Eagles
as well as the Phillies. She was very active and loved being outdoors in her shorts, well
into Winter.

Family and friends were Bobbie's passion and delight and she is most proud of the young
man that they raised. She would spend summers going to the Jersey shore with
girlfriends and never missed a good sunset at Penn Beach. When she couldn't make it to
the shore, you would find her unmistakable red Mustang, and beach chair sitting along
the Delaware river. She enjoyed her time here and made many lifelong friends.

Bobbie was predeceased by her brothers William and Forrest as well as her dear "sissy"
Charlotte Mitchell. She is survived by her husband, David B. Cross and her son Brandon (Jordan Clarke). She leaves behind numerous loving relatives, friends, pets and a Father-in-Law that will miss her dearly.

To lessen chances of spreading the virus that took her from us, Bobbie requested a
private viewing, but graveside services will be held immediately following at Lawnside
Cemetery, Woodstown, NJ. A celebration of life, when we can all enjoy it safely, will be
scheduled for a future date.

The family wishes to thank all of those who prayed for, and made her comfortable, during her
fight. In lieu of flowers, Donations may be made to the Greenbank Church of Christ, 511 Greenbank Road, Wilmington, DE 19808 or Rheumatoid Arthritis Foundation, Help Fight RA,8815 Conroy Windermere Rd, Suite 309, Orlando, Fl.,32835. in Memory of Bobbie L. Cross.

Graveside services will be held 11:00 AM on Monday January 4th at the Lawnside Cemetery, Woodstown.
