A memorial service celebrating the life of Bobby Wayne Watts, 89, of Watauga, Texas will be held at 2 p.m. Saturday, September 17, 2022 at the Brown Trail Church of Christ in Bedford, Texas with Mr. Eddie Parrish officiating.

Bobby Watts passed away Thursday, August 18, 2022 in Fort Worth, Texas. He was born in Johntown, Texas on November 25, 1932, the son of Opal (Gibson) and James Lee Watts.

Bobby married June Gullion on September 5, 1954 in Bogata, Texas.

Bobby worked 36 years for "The Company", Texas Electric Service.  He was an elder for 40 years at the Brown Trail Church of Christ.

Chrisanne remembers: Everyday, growing up, my Dad would come home from work at 5:25.  The table would be set and dinner would be prepared.  My Mom would always greet him at the door with a kiss and tell him "everything's ready."  When I received a call that my Dad had passed away, I looked down at my watch - 5:25.  I know my Mom was greeting him at Heaven's door with a kiss and telling him everything's ready."

Bobby was preceded in death by his parents; wife, June Watts; and brother, Dale Watts.

He is survived by his daughters, Renee Mexia and Chrisanne Brightwell and husband, Larry, all of Cleburne, Texas; grandchildren, Zach Brightwell and wife, Sarah, and Reagan Priester and husband, Andrew; and great grandchildren, Ember Brightwell, Stella Brightwell, and Tucker Priester.
