Robert Hitson Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Greenlawn Funeral Home Branson on Mar. 9, 2026.
It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Robert Ray Hitson, who left this world on February 14, 2026, at the age of 86. Born on February 7, 1940, in Oilton Creek, Oklahoma, Robert led a life marked by hard work and dedication. He made a living as a common laborer, earning the respect of those around him through his relentless work ethic and determination.

Robert was a devoted brother and is survived by his beloved sister, Linda Bracamonte. The bond they shared was a testament to the love and support that family can provide. Throughout his life, Robert demonstrated kindness and compassion, always willing to lend a hand to those in need. His warmth and genuine nature will be dearly missed by all who knew him.

A memorial visitation to celebrate Robert's life will be held on March 5, 2026, at the Greenlawn Funeral Home in Branson, Missouri, starting at 10:00 AM. Friends and family are invited to gather, share their memories, and pay their respects as we honor the legacy of a man who touched our lives in so many ways.

As we remember Robert, let us carry forward the lessons he shared and the love he spread, keeping his spirit alive in our hearts.

Robert was preceded in death by: Clarence Hitson, Marcella Hitson
