Bobby Charles Renick

Bobby Charles Renick, age 63 of Rocky Mount, passed away Monday, September 6, 2021. Bobby was born in Rocky Mount, VA to Leo Marshall and Barbara Reynolds Renick. He was raised, schooled, lived, worked and served his entire life in Rocky Mount. Bobby began his service to the citizens of Franklin County volunteering with the Junior Rescue Squad and as a member of The Search and Rescue Dive Team. In 1979, Bobby was hired as a Deputy with the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office. Even after his retirement in July 2013, Bobby returned to work as a part-time Deputy serving in the Franklin County Courthouse in the positions of both Security Screening Officer and Court Bailiff. Over his brief but impactful lifetime, Bobby utilized his skills as a carpenter/builder to bless others in the community. He built, remodeled, and repaired, some of which was as a volunteer with Habitat for Humanity. Bobby also traveled with a group from the Assemblies of God to Louisiana where his skills and kindness were utilized to help those impacted by Hurricane Katrina. There are not enough words to include all of the ways he served and blessed Franklin County and its citizens. Bobby was preceded in death by his father, Leo Marshall Renick. He is survived by his wife of 15-years, Kathi “Kat” Renick; mother, Barbara Reynolds Renick; his children, Matthew Marshall “Matt” Renick (LeAnne), Rachel Elizabeth Renick, and Stephanie Jean Rhoades; the loves and lights of his life, his grandchildren Dylan Marshall Renick, Molly Jean Renick, Colt Matthew Renick, and Colton Allen Jackson.
