Rev. Bobby Gene Warmoth, 91, of Summerville, former husband of Eunice Mozelle Warmoth (deceased), and later in life, Marilyn Rotell Warmoth, passed away on Wednesday, February 10, 2021, at Summerville Community Hospice House.
Bobby was born on January 25, 1930, in Chester, SC, son of the late James Richard and Fanny Bell Warmoth.
His distinguished 21 years of service in the U.S. Navy began as an enlisted shipman. Early in his military career, he served as Naval Attach? at the U.S. Embassy in Mexico City, Mexico. He was among the first within the ranks of Enlisted Personnel to be promoted to Officer Status as a Lieutenant J.G.; subsequently, he was promoted to full Lieutenant. As Lieutenant, Young Bobby, as he was known, was entrusted with the position of Naval Aide for the Admiral of the Naval Amphibious Base at Little Creek, VA.
After his military career, Young Bobby, ever a servant, moved on to ministerial pursuits. He was graduated with a Baccalaureate: Theological Degree from Liberty Christian College in Pensacola, FL. Reverend Bobby had a heart for starting churches and discipling The Flock from Florida to South Carolina to Virginia.
Bobby was a loving and dedicated husband and father, and a mentor and friend to all he met. He cherished fellowshipping and breaking bread with those he loved, which was everybody. He also enjoyed taking long scenic rides through the peacefulness of God's countryside with family. Wherever the Lord Sent him, Bobby was quick to take every opportunity that He Provided to pray for, minister to, and counsel those he met.
We love you, Poppa and Pastor Dad, and we look forward to meeting up with you again when the Kingdom of God is fully realized here on Earth.
