Bobbie was born on May 7, 1930, in Downsville, LA, and went to meet her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, on September 7, 2025. She was the second of ten children of Robert Lee (Bob) Terral and Geneva Allen Terral. Bobbie graduated from Downsville High School, Class of 1947. She received a B.A. Degree in Education from ULM. Bobbie retired after twenty-eight years of teaching at Claiborne Elementary School in Ouachita Parish. After retirement, Bobbie volunteered for the Glenwood Hospital Auxiliary.

Two weeks after graduation from high school, Bobbie married Wilks Lenard (Tinker) Savage. They were married for fifty-four years and had four children, Steve, Ronnie, Gary, and Tammy. After they both retired, Bobbie and Tinker were able to do lots of traveling. Every fall, they would go to Wyoming for Tinker to hunt. Bobbie would read and do needlework. Tinker was a builder, and together they built five of their own houses together. Bobbie also enjoyed many trips with church seniors and their "lunch bunch." Bobbie was a member of WFR Church of Christ, and she passed her love of the Lord on to her children, all of whom are members of the church. Her many loves included: the Lord, church, family, flowers, quilting, reading, and gardening. She was a member of the Tuesdays Bees Quilting Group and the N.L.Q.A., serving as president. She made quilts for all her children, grandchildren, and many great-grandchildren. Another of Bobbie's favorite pastimes was writing in her daily journal, capturing moments she spent with friends and family. And, if you were one of the lucky ones, you received one of Bobbie's cards or letters.

(Tinker) Savage; brothers Robert Lee (Buster) Terral, Jordan (Jock) Terral, Tom Terral, and Bill Terral; sisters Daisie Livingston, Tiny Mae Terral; great-grandchildren William Savage, Savanah Savage, and Elizabeth Glory Savage.
