Memorial service have been canceled and may be rescheduled at a later date. Arrangements are under the direction of Robert Massie Funeral Directors.

Bobbie Armstrong was born May 29, 1941 in Forrest City, Arkansas to Robert Alton and Dorothy Marie McLaren. Bobbie met Thomas Armstrong while living in Monahans, Texas and the two were married on February 21, 1962 in Carlsbad, New Mexico. Bobbie and Thomas spent approximately 31 years in Monahans, Texas where Thomas Armstrong worked for Halliburton. Bobbie was a homemaker most of the time, but went to work for about 12 years as a dispatcher for the Monahans Police Department. Bobbie always called the officers her "boys" and told stories of how she helped solve crimes in Monahans. Bobbie and Thomas Armstrong went all over Texas where Thomas was participating in radio-controlled airplane fly-ins. They eventually moved to the Central Texas area around 1993, settling down in Hewitt, Texas. In retirement, Thomas was very active with his flying club and Bobbie would help at the flying field, especially when the club hosted fly-ins. They remained in Hewitt, Texas for 31 years. When Bobbie began to have health issues, she moved to San Angelo, Texas for skilled nursing care in 2023. While in San Angelo, she loved to worship through the Southgate Church of Christ internet link or attend services provided by the Meadow Creek facility. In her younger years, Bobbie enjoyed spending time with family and going camping. One of her greatest joys was when she became "Memaw" to her granddaughters. She loved when Kelsey and Ashley would come and spend time with her and Thomas (Pepaw) during the summers. Bobbie enjoyed doing yard work and also loved drawing, painting, crocheting and sewing. Playing Bingo with her friends at the Meadow Creek Nursing Home was a highlight of her last few years. Bobbie loved and couldn't wait to receive her hugs from her great grandson, Karsyn, and enjoyed having surprises ready to give him on each visit. Bobbie loved her dogs and always had one or more in the house.

Bobbie is survived by her husband of 63 years, Thomas Armstrong of the home in Hewitt; her daughter, Kathy Kemp and husband Philip of Christoval; two granddaughters, Kelsey Kemp of Hewitt and Ashley Kemp of Christoval; a great grandson, Karsyn Kemp of Christoval; a sister, Jeanne Brown of Blanchard, Oklahoma along with nieces, Leisa Yarbrough and Stella Cox and their families also in Blanchard, Oklahoma; brother-in-law, Edward Armstrong and wife Kathryn; niece, Kimberly Moss and husband Garrett and family; nephew, Scott Armstrong and wife Jamie and family and Christopher Armstrong and family. Bobbie was preceded in death by her parents and nephew, Jerry Lynn.

The family would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to all the staff and residents of the Meadow Creek Nursing and Rehabilitation Center in San Angelo. Each one made her time there one of the happiest moments of her life and provided great assistance to us with her care. We would also like to say thank you to the nurses and CNA's with Hospice of San Angelo for your care and compassion provided to Bobbie and the family during transition to the end of life. May you all be truly blessed as we were.

Morris Marcus Reese, Jr., 82, of San Angelo, Texas, moved on to his next great adventure on September 28, 2025, surrounded by family and friends.

Born May 12, 1943, to Morris Marcus Reese, Sr. and Mildred Ozelle Nickelson Reese, Morris—affectionately known as “Butch”—grew up in Cotulla, Texas, and carried a lifelong pride in his roots. A die-hard Longhorn, he graduated from the University of Texas in 1966 and went on to earn his law degree from St. Mary’s University School of Law in 1969. While in law school, he met the love of his life, Anne Bayard Sykes. The two married on March 15, 1969, beginning a partnership that spanned more than five decades. Their marriage brought companionship, adventure, and extended family who became an inseparable part of their lives.

Morris began practicing law in Laredo in 1969, where he and Anne welcomed their two daughters. In 1981, the family moved to San Angelo, where Morris became a partner in the firm Gossett, Harrison, Reese & Wilson. He practiced there for the remainder of his distinguished legal career, retiring in 2009. Morris lived with integrity and earned the deep respect of clients, colleagues, and his community.

Beyond his profession, Morris lived with purpose, curiosity, and adventure. He was a marathon runner, cyclist, and tennis player, and enthusiastically supported his daughters’ athletic pursuits. For many years, he loved to spend time as a volunteer timer for the San Angelo Central High School track team. He served on several boards, including the West Texas Boys Ranch, and as president of the San Angelo Country Club and participated in the Stribling Art Extravaganza planning committee. He also established a continuing annual scholarship, The Morris and Ozelle Reese Scholarship, for graduating seniors at San Angelo Central and Lake View High Schools.

In retirement, Morris discovered new passions that deeply enriched the rest of his life. He sailed around the world with Anne and dear friends, and later found a love of painting the landscapes of West Texas and Big Bend. Guided by mentors Hugh Campbell, Raul Ruiz, and Jimmy Don Cox, and studying under nationally recognized artists, he became an accomplished plein air painter. He was a signature member of the American Plains Artists and also belonged to Oil Painters of America, the Outdoor Painters Society, and the Austin Plein Air Society.

Morris was a true renaissance man—equally at home with a paintbrush in hand, sailing across the globe, or two-stepping on a dance floor. He loved Longhorn football and sports as much as art and sailing, carrying a spirit of curiosity and adventure into all he did. Though he was never the first to want to attend the party, he was always the most fun once there—his sharp wit and dry humor made him unforgettable. He embodied both humility and brilliance, wisdom and generosity, leaving everyone better for having known him.

Morris is preceded in death by his parents, Morris Marcus Reese Sr and his Mother Ozelle Nickelson Reese, and cousins, Neal and Janet Kerr.

He is survived by his beloved wife of 56 years, Anne; daughters Elizabeth “Nickie” Nickelson Haine and husband Christopher John Haine and their children Zachary O’Byrne Haine, Samuel Morris Tweedy Haine, and August Marcus Haine; Rachel Reese Trulove and husband Michael Andrew Trulove and their children Reese James Trulove and Reagan Elizabeth Trulove; Craig Yates and wife Colleen Glass Yates and their children Cara and Cameron Yates, cousin Ted Kerr and wife Kathy Kerr and their children Reese, Marcus and Scott Kerr and their families.

Morris lived for his family, worked tirelessly from a young age, and filled every room with humor and warmth. His love, laughter, and sharp tongue will be missed beyond words.

A service will be held at Emmanuel Episcopal on October 4, 2025- 11:00am, with a reception to follow. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to the Ozelle and Morris Reese Scholarship Fund https://saaf.fcsuite.com/erp/donate/create/fund?funit_id=1374
