Obituary published on Legacy.com by Bowser Family Funeral Home - Broken Bow on Oct. 1, 2025.
Bobby Shomo, age 63, of
Broken Bow, Oklahoma, died Wednesday, September 10, 2025, at the Broken Bow Health and Rehab. He was born on Tuesday, October 24, 1961, to Timothy Sr. and Effie Lou Peters Shomo in Talihina, Oklahoma.
Bobby was a strong, hardworking man who lived with love in his heart and faith as his guide. An outdoorsman at heart, he found peace in the woods deer hunting and joy in spending time with his new granddaughter. He was proud of his work, often tinkering with his post truck, and took great pride in his more than 30 years of hauling posts for Julian Sawmill. A true collector, Bobby had a knack for finding and treasuring many things, but nothing meant more to him than his family and his God. As a faithful member of NaYimmi Baptist Church in Broken Bow, his faith was evident in the way he lived. To his many friends, he was known simply and fondly as "Bobby Ducks," a name that carried with it respect, friendship, and the memories of a life well lived.
Bobby was preceded in death by his parents; by his son, Channing Battiest; one sister, Sandra Shomo and one sister in law, Lucilla Gibson.
Bobby is survived by his loving wife, Cynthia Shomo of
Broken Bow, Oklahoma; one son, Caleb Shomo of
Broken Bow, Oklahoma; his daughter, Chasity Aaron of Durant, Oklahoma; four brothers and sisters-in-law, Curtis Shomo of
Broken Bow, Oklahoma, Billy and Tina Shomo of
