Misc. Notes
Athens - Bobby Hollingsworth was born in the Athens Community of Monroe County, Mississippi, on May 9, 1932, to Cleve and Alma Howell Hollingsworth.
He graduated from Aberdeen High School in 1950, and married Betty June Kendall of Amory, MS, two years later. She died in 1991.
Bobby was a member of the US Navy and served on the USS Chandler in the Korean War. For over 25 years, Bobby was an employee of North East Mississippi Sand and Gravel. He later managed the Monroe County Landfill and served on the Board of Three Rivers Solid Waste.
Bobby met Tula Rose Montgomery on his birthday, May 9, 1992. Later that year he married Tula on November 21, 1992. They were happily married for 24 years.
