Bobbie Lou Russell 89, of Plant City, FL, formerly of Magee, MS, passed away peacefully August 17, 2019. Bobbie Lou was born April 10, 1930 in Magee Mississippi. Daughter of a Farmer, she grew up in the cotton fields. She was an athlete and later enjoyed watching her sons play football. She was a fan of the sport. A true Southern Belle, Bobbie Lou loved cooking. She made the best Chicken-n-Dumplings in the South and if you were ever so blessed to get a slice of her Red Velvet or Italian Cream Cake, then you knew perfection. Most days you could find her on a river bank fishing, her absolute favorite thing to do. Bobbie Lou never met a stranger and had a heart of gold.
She is survived by Patsy Parrish (Jamie) of Plant City, FL; Jake Russell (Lynn) of Mendenhall MS; Don Russell of Clinton, MS; Danny Russell (Cheri) of Clinton, MS; Carol Fortenberry (Marlyn) of Columbia, MS; Darrell Russell (Tanya) of Madison MS; Harold Russell (Frances) of Brandon MS.
