Bobby was born on July 1, 1970, in Lexington, Missouri, to Charles Robert and Diana (Nordsieck) Howard, Sr. Bobby was a trucker for many years. Bobby’s world revolved around his family, especially his grandchild whom he spoiled every chance he could. Along with spending time with family and friends, Bobby enjoyed going to the races, watching Chiefs football, rock music and playing on his computer. You could always find him rolling around in his “snazzy” wheelchair. Every chance he had, he would make jokes for everyone to smile and laugh. He was the kind of man to help in any way he could, even if it meant giving the shirt off his back.

Bobby is survived by four children, Cory Howard of Concordia, MO, Ryan (Alexia) Howard of Lexington, MO, Chelsea Howard and Fiancé, Brandon Armstrong of Higginsville, MO, and Charles Robert Howard III of FL; four grandchildren, Mason Howard, Braelyn Howard, Abel Howard, and Hadley Howard; three sisters, Wendy (James) Skaggs of Lexington, MO, Chris (Shannon) Estenbaum of Lexington, MO, and Dawn (Daniel) Harris of Lexington, MO; and many nieces, nephews, relatives, and friends.

Along with both his parents, Bobby was preceded in death by a grandchild, Paisley Armstrong.
