Obituary

Bobbie McEwen Boyd Myers, 81, went to be with the Lord on July 8, 2021 surrounded by her family at her home in Tylertown, MS.

Mrs. Bobbie was born in Jayess, MS and was the daughter of Sidney and Winnie Bullock McEwen. She loved crafts and traveling with her sisters and friends. She enjoyed baking and was known for her egg custard and blueberry pies. As her health began to fail, she took to bird watching from her favorite spot on her porch and always made sure her feathered friends were well fed. She was a faithful member of Enon Baptist Church where she dedicated many hours, alongside her husband, to training and preparing the children and youth Bible drill participants. She also served as a Sunday School and Discipleship Training teacher for many years. She will be missed by all that knew and loved her.

They include Haley Hedden (Charlie) of Montgomery, AL, Ben Boyd (Stacey) of Pearl, MS, Josh Boyd (Emily) of Tylertown, MS, and Eric Boyd (Hannah) of Hattiesburg, MS.
