Robert D. “Bobby” Timmons, most called him Boss Hogg; we called him Dad and Pa-Paw; died at 91 years of age on Friday, March 22, 2024, in Prattville, AL. He served as the Executive Director of the Alabama Sheriffs Association from 1975 – 2022 starting in Prattville, AL and then he moved it to Montgomery, AL, in eyesight and walking distance of the Capitol, where it stands today in his name.
He was born in 1932 and raised in Ensley, Alabama. He married Emily in 1964 and they settled down in Hoover, AL while he traveled the highway to and from Montgomery, AL for many years until he finally relocated to Montgomery himself. Prior to the Alabama Sheriffs Association, he served in the House of Representatives from 1970 – 1974. He also served as a Special Assistant to Jefferson County Sheriff Mel Bailey until he was asked to “temporarily” take over the Alabama Sheriffs Association. He “temporarily” was the Executive Director of the Association for 47+ years and loved every minute of it. He was a walking Code of Alabama, life experiences, and stories no one else could tell or ever imagine! He was a member of the National Sheriffs Association and at one point was the oldest living member. He treasured the Office of Sheriff from one end of the United States to the other.
He enjoyed his “Bobby Days” and “Bobby Time”. He did not get that much of those, until retirement, but that was his choice. He worked 7 days a week and almost 24 hours a day. He loved it that much. He did so many other important and treasured things in life that there is just not enough time or paper!
He is survived by his son, Todd; daughter, Leslie (Chris); granddaughters Ensley, Valorie (Dany), Ashley (Nick) and Alicia; grandson Brandon (Natalie); great grandchildren Bryant, Hunter, Sydney, and Ryan.
His Celebration of Life will be Saturday, April 6, 2024, at 2:00PM at Leak Memory. It is located at 945 Lincoln Road, Montgomery, AL 36109.
We will miss him immensely, but I smile when I see him having a “Board Meeting” up there! You can’t see the table, but he’s having a meeting!
In lieu of flowers, please send donations to the Alabama Sheriffs Youth Ranches in Bobby's name.
Thank you!
