Bobby Huff was born on October 24, 1945, the son of the late Luther J. Huff, Sr. and Irene (Shipman) Huff. He was the sixth of 10 children, born in this loving and tight-knit family. He was taught to work hard and keep the faith in Christ at an early age.
He spent his childhood in Ledbetter, Texas, receiving his education at Post Oak School. Some of his adult life, he lived in Austin, Texas, where he was a mechanical engineer at what is now known as Capital Metro Bus Company. He also lived in Houston, Texas where he was an excellent mechanic. He later returned to Lee County, Giddings, Texas area and started his own business: "Huff Donuts". This was a very successful venture for many years, until he retired. He soon after returned to his love and passion, working as a mechanic.
Bobby married the love of his life, Darlene Robinson Wade on June 16, 2011. Together they launched a lawn service, in which they serviced many people in the community. He delightfully took care of his customers with a bright smile on his face. He and Darlene were together over 15 years and were married for 13 years.
Bobby loved spending time with his family and friends. He enjoyed attending gatherings such as family reunions, holidays and birthdays. He was active in the Lee County Juneteenth Association for many years. He found pleasure in playing dominos with friends and was a member of the Big Six Domino Club. He was well skilled in the area of barbequing. He was a loving husband, father, brother, grandfather, uncle, cousin and friend.
