    Notes 
    • Mrs. Bobbie Joyce McLemore, 74, of San Augustine, Texas, passed away Thursday, August 13, 2020, at a Nacogdoches hospital.

      Born July 17, 1946, to parents George and George Ann (Furra) Denton, Mrs. McLemore was a native of Nacogdoches, Texas, and had lived in the San Augustine area for a number of years. She was a member of San Augustine County Cowboy Church.

      Bobbie worked several years in food service and retail management, most notably with Dairy Queen and Brookshire Brothers.

      She was the matriarch of her family and treasured spending time with all of her family, thriving to support her children and grandchildren in all of their events and activities. Bobbie enjoyed playing games and was a Yahtzee master.

      Traveling and outdoor activities, such as hunting and fishing, brought countless hours of joy to her life. She had a great talent for growing flowers and gardening and did an awesome job canning the vegetables she harvested. Bobbie loved her pups, providing excellent care for Scotty and Tank.

      Her survivors include her son, Ray Frederick and wife Alicia of Alto, Texas; daughters, Debbie McAdams and fiance Gary Darnell of Garrison, Texas, and Dayna Martin and husband Byron of Nacogdoches, Texas; her fiance, James Johnson of San Augustine, Texas; her sisters, Ola Ware and Olene Yates, both of Nacogdoches, Texas; grandchildren, Kristyanna Frederick, Shane Frederick, Tanner Frederick, Brittany Jackson, Elisa Southern, Kelley McAdams, Jessica Randolph, Justin McBride, Natalie Martin, and Rebecca Martin; and four great-grandchildren.

      She was preceded in death by her husband, John Lynn McLemore, in 2007; her father, George Denton, in 1983; her mother, George Ann Furra Denton, in 1989; and 10 siblings. [Note: the names and dates of 5 of these siblings can be found on the FindAGrave memorial pages of her parents]
