Sue Hobbs, age 82, passed away on Thursday, August 3, 2023. Sue was born in 1941 to Jesse and Earlene Glover in Tennessee. Sue grew up in the Memphis area until she moved to Pennsville, New Jersey where she spent most of her life. Sue was most happy here while raising her three sons and living in the home she adored. For many years she enjoyed her weekly card club with the girls. But even more, Sue loved going to the casino and finding her favorite slot machine “Cashman”. She made several trips to Atlantic City with her son Rich and her niece Kathy and many a memory was made. Her family began celebrating her birthday every year with a trip to Las Vegas where many times the entire family would gather to celebrate her!
Sue was preceded in death by her son, Steve Hobbs and her siblings, Jessie, Robert, and Novie.
She is survived by her sons, David Hobbs (Dana) of Sparks, Nevada, Richard Hobbs of Kansas City, Missouri and her daughter in law, Eileen Payne Hobbs of Concord, California. She also leaves nine grandchildren, Chris, Richard Jr., Jesse, Tommy, Rachel Marie, Stevie Jr., Rachel Lynn, Brittany, and Heather; and one great grandson, Tyler.
Visitation with the family will be Friday, August 11, 2023, at Woodfin Memorial Chapel in Murfreesboro, Tennessee from 12:00pm until the time of funeral services beginning at 2:00pm. Burial will follow in Coleman Cemetery.
