Bobbiline McLemore went to be with her Savior and Lord on June 29, 2012, at the age of 81. A long time resident of the Springhill Community in Jasper County, Texas, she was born Bobbiline Marshall in San Augustine County on May 10, 1931. Her family moved to Jasper County in 1936.

They lived at various locations in Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Michigan, and Maryland, but spent most of their life in Tioga, Louisiana, and retired to Jasper County in 1987.

Mrs. McLemore lived a very full life where church, music, and family played the most prominent roles. She was the pianist for the Jasper County Quartet who sang on the radio in the 1940's when KTXJ first started operation.

She and her husband enjoyed traveling to singing conventions and made many close friends among Southern Gospel singers across the country. They also traveled all over North America in their travel trailer, visiting areas from Alaska to the Florida Keys and from Newfoundland, Canada, to southern California. She was a devoted mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother.
