Bobbye Six Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Sellars Funeral Home - Lebanon on Feb. 12, 2026.
Bobbye June Six (Young), age 83, passed away peacefully on Sunday, February 8, 2026. She was born on April 5, 1942, in Nashville, Tennessee. The Celebration of Life Gathering is Friday, February 20, 2026 from 3-6 p.m. at Sellars Funeral Home, Lebanon TN.

Bobbye was preceded in death by her parents, Robert H. Young and Helen (Conatser) Young. She is survived by her husband of 62 years, Howard R. Six; her son, Robert H. Six (Karen); her daughter, Kimberley Holcomb; her granddaughter, Sarah (Jordan); and her cherished great-grandchildren, Everleigh and Everett. She is also survived by her sister, Joy Almond, along with numerous nieces and nephews who loved her dearly.

Bobbye had an unmistakable zest for life and was known as a sassy fireball. She never liked to sit still and approached each day with energy and humor. Her lifelong love of horses brought her endless joy, and she was actively involved for many years with both the American Saddlebred Horse Association and the American Hackney Horse Society.

She also enjoyed golfing and spent countless hours on the course with Howard, playing together whenever time and weather allowed. Crafting and knitting kept her hands busy and her creativity alive, along with stained glass. Her beautiful creations were proudly displayed throughout her home, each piece a reflection of her artistic spirit. Bobbye also loved shopping and traveling, always eager for the next adventure.

In lieu of flowers, the family suggests memorial donations be made to Alive Hospice of Murfreesboro.

Arrangements are entrusted to Sellars Funeral Home, Lebanon, Tennessee, 615-444-9393

Dearest Bobbye and I first met when we were teenagers. She was 17 and I was 19 when mutual friend Sarah (Sally) Carver took me into their orbit. Bobbye was showing her American Saddlebred walktrot horse in three gaited horse in juvenile classes and equitation. Sally was her instructer. Special events to remember. Her graduation day from Isaac Litton High School. Her attempt to teach me to canter on a horse. The first time she showed at Worlds Champion Ship Horse Show in Louisville KY. Attending her wedding to Howard. Lived in the same block in Madison TN subdivision starting our families. Rob is about six months older than my daughter Kelly and Kim was born about a month after my daughter Krissy. Howard was still working on his doctorate at Vanderbilt. Following his career we visited them in St. Louis, then in Pennsylvania. In later years we we shared some adult fun on a Caribbean Cruise with Sally and Kathy Barlow. Still remember where we were on 7/7/2017, ridding dogsleds on Taku Glacer in Alaska. Then there was the years of staying with the pets while they took their anniversary vacations. Bobbye also hosted Thanksgiving dinners for friends and family. She was a very special part of my life.
