With heavy hearts and fond memories, we announce the passing of Bobby Alton Maxey, beloved father, grandfather, and community pillar. Born on September 9, 1938, in Ebenezer, SC to the late Jessie and Della Haulbrook Maxey, Bobby peacefully departed from this world on April 28, 2024, in the arms of his loving daughter in Quitman, GA to join his beloved wife, Willene Rollins Maxey in their Heavenly home.
Throughout his life, Bobby touched countless hearts as a dedicated member of Cateechee Baptist Church, where he found solace and community. He led a life of service, first through a successful career at Ohio Gear and later as the proud owner of Bob’s Auto Sales. His dedication extended to the Norris Fire Department, where he served as fire chief for many years, ensuring the safety and well-being of his neighbors.
A true craftsman, Bobby’s passion for restoring antique cars and caring for animals was unmatched. With his remarkable skills and unwavering determination, he could fix anything that came his way, earning him a reputation as a reliable and resourceful friend to all.
A devoted Mason for six decades with Tate Masonic Lodge #292 and Liberty Masonic Lodge #235 A.F.M., Bobby garnered the respect and admiration of all who crossed his path. His warmth, generosity, and invaluable contributions to the community will be remembered and cherished for years to come.
Bobby is survived by his loving daughter Stephanie Hollifield (Brian), son Rick Maxey (Vencie), grandchildren Will Maxey (Mary Frances), Hayden Maxey (Hannah), Rylee Hollifield, and Josey, Hollifield and a host of friends and family who will miss him dearly.
In addition to his wife and parents he was preceded in death by three sisters, Christine Pilgrim, Nettie Pilgrim and Hazel McCall, and three brothers, Ken Maxey, Clayton Maxey and Howard Maxey.
As we gather to honor Bobby’s legacy and bid him farewell, let us remember his kindness, his spirit, and the indelible mark he left on our hearts. May his memory continue to inspire and bring comfort to all who knew him.
