A grandmother, a mother, a wife, a sister, a daughter, and a woman. These words are so common to use to describe someone close to you but it can never truly describe the impact they had on your life and of how they leave you. You are left with a missing piece of your heart for the person that meant so much to you. Such a person never really leaves you, but teaches you the importance of life and love. This was Bobbie Kell; a grandmother, a mother, a wife, a sister, a daughter, and an amazing woman.
Mrs. Bobbie Kell, age 79, of Douglasville, GA passed away Wednesday, March 4, 2020. She was born on November 3, 1940. Mrs. Kell worked at the Commercial Bank of Douglasville as First Vice-President for many years. Later she retired from banking and began a career in cosmetology. She retired from public work after the birth of her first grandchild and took great joy raising and spending time with her family.
