BOBBIE JEAN STILLEY OLDHAM
Born ~ October 2, 1933
Passed into glory ~ January 5, 2025
Born a New Orleans girl and raised in Port Sulphur, Louisiana, Bobbie loved being the only child of Robert Monroe Stilley and Jennie Bell Keefer Stilley. A "Daddy's Girl" at heart, they shared chicory coffee each morning before he left for work at the sulphur company.
When Bobbie was only 13, Jesus called her daddy home and she and her mother boarded a train to Texas where they were welcomed by many aunts, uncles and cousins. They settled in Tomball where Bobbie attended Tomball High School and would return after graduating from her beloved Baylor University to begin a teaching career that would span four decades.
As a first-year teacher at the Cherry Street Elementary School, Bobbie met another new, handsome young teacher, and she and Earle Dean Oldham, Sr. were married within the year! The couple dedicated their lives to the education of Tomball students and before Earle's passing in November of 2020, the two celebrated 64 years of marriage.
Jesus Christ was always first in Bobbie's heart and she radiated His steadfast love, peace and joy to all who knew her. Throughout life, Bobbie and Earle modeled faithful commitment to the Lord, each other, and their family ~ daughter & son-in-law Deana and Vic Lawrence, grandsons Jordan (Caidee) Lawrence, Hunter (Sarah) Lawrence, son and daughter-in-law Dean and Rusty Oldham, grandson Jaxson Oldham, granddaughter Remy Oldham, and great-grandchildren Stilley, Quincy, Ira, Shire and Lenore Lawrence.
Bobbie, Mother, Granny, GiGi ~ we adore you, our precious jewel. You have loved us all with the limitless love of Jesus and have been our greatest Prayer Warrior. Your faithful example has brought each of us closer to the Lord. You have lived out your favorite scripture "Strength and dignity are her clothing, and she smiles at the future." Proverbs 31:25
Oh, how we will miss you on earth but know we will all dwell in the house of the Lord together forever! Hallelujah
