Bobby was well known for building homes of perfection and being an astute businessman. He lived by the Golden Rule “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you” regardless of whether he was building or selling you real estate always treating you fair. He was also former owner of B & S Equipment and was a US Army Veteran. His family said his main hobby was work but having his family around, playing golf and riding motorcycles was some of his favorite activities.

He will be welcomed at the river by his mother Mina Wiley Powell, brother Charles Powell, daughter Tonya Faye Powell, wife Alice Faye Powell and Marietta Hager who raised him as he was her own. His family will receive friends on Wednesday March 12 starting at 4:00 PM and ending at 8:00 and on Thursday from 10:00 AM until 11:00 AM following with a private entombment in Bluegrass Memorial Gardens.
