BOBBY MESSER Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by the love of his life and wife of 59 years, Gladys Wilson Messer, sisters; Sally Sizemore, Lodus Stacy, and Marie Harris, brothers; Oples Messer, Walter Messer, Lawson Messer, and George Messer.
He is survived by his children; Georgia Marie (Mark) Vargas, Deloris Messer, and Bobby (Bridgett) Messer, sister Gladys Messer, grandchildren; Mark (Kimberly) Messer, Robert (Ieshia) Vargas, Jeffery (Ashley) Vargas, Johnathan (Tessa) Messer, Amanda Messer, Ricky (Autumn) Pletcher, Jacklyn (Justice) Bishop, and Brandon (Knesia) Pletcher, and a host of great-grandchildren, nieces and nephews.
Bobby retired from General Motors after working there for 33 years. He was a member of Pontiac Missionary Baptist Church. He loved spending time with his family, fishing, mowing grass, wrestling, and going to church. Bobby wasn't a long talker but there was hardly a day that he didn't call his children. He will be dearly missed.
