Bobbie Jean was born in Tampa, Florida to the late Robert Lee and Kobie Kae Smith.
She valued time spent with family and friends. She enjoyed starting her day sipping her coffee with a little milk n' sugar, spent her day playing games on her phone, and closed out the evening being refreshed with a little bit of Busch beer.
Bobbie Jean is predeceased by 2 daughters; Sandra Faulkner and Donna Monterey Rose. She is survived by daughter Jennifer Martinez (Jose) and son Robert "Devon" Siders III, siblings; Jeffrey Smith, Linda L Evans (Michael), Sheryl Worley (Jason), Cindy Smith, and Michelle Bee, eleven grandchildren, three great grandchildren, and large extended family.
A Life Celebration for Bobbie Jean will be held from 1pm -3pm, Saturday, August 19, 2023 at Fellowship Baptist Church, Seffner Campus, 401 US-92, Seffner, FL 33584.
