Mr. Bobby was born December 16, 1943 in Todd County. He was the retired owner of McGuire Logging. He is proceeded in death by his parents, Alton Lee McGuire and Opal Louise Burton McGuire. Bobby lived a life rooted in hard work, love, and simple joys. He was a man of the outdoors, finding peace and purpose in logging, fishing, and hunting. Whether in the woods hunting or logging, or by the water fishing, he was happiest when sharing stories and laughter with friends and family.

Above all else, Bobby cherished his family. He was a devoted husband and father, loyal friend, and the proudest Pops/Poppa. His grandchildren and great-grandchildren were the light of his life, and nothing brought him more joy than time spent with them, teaching them, teasing them, and loving them endlessly.

Bobby leaves behind a legacy of hard work, strong values, and unconditional love. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him and forever remembered in the stories told and the traditions carried on.

He is survived by his wife of 63 years, Linda McGuire of Ashland City, TN, his son Ricky McGuire and his wife Betsy of Charlotte, TN, his daughter Janet Smith and her husband Mark of Elkton, his sister Kathy Hutchison of Elkton, his grandchildren Kristie McGuire, Jessica Spicer, Caleb Smith, Josh Smith, Trinity McGuire, Christopher Smith and 10 great grandchildren.
