Bobby Joe Herron

Bobby Joe Herron, age 81, of Biloxi, Mississippi, passed away surrounded by those he loved on Sunday, October 11, 2026.

Born on December 6, 1944, in Sardis, Mississippi, Bobby was the son of Louis and Octa Herron. He attended high school and went on to become the owner of Herron Electric Company. Bobby proudly served his country in the Army after being drafted during the Vietnam War.

Bobby enjoyed fishing, hosting cookouts, and, above all, sharing jokes and stories with those around him. He had a way of bringing laughter to those he spent time with, and he will be remembered for the moments and memories he shared with family and friends.

Bobby was preceded in death by his parents, Louis and Octa Herron; his brothers, Louis Herron, John Lee Herron, and Thomas Herron; his sisters, Ola Mae Rogers and Betty Wilson; and his great-grandchild, Theodore Brumfield.

Those left to cherish his memory include his daughter, Kimberly Stephens (Bryan Stephens); his son, Bobby Herron II (Cyndi Herron); and his grandchildren, Chad Stephens (Jamye Stephens), Samantha Henderson (Zak Henderson), Bre Brumfield (Bryce Brumfield), Kassidy Stephens, Morgan Ladner (Caleb Ladner), Cayden Kowalski, and Kolbi Herron. He is also survived by his great-grandchildren, Mila Henderson, Emme Henderson, Vivian Brumfield, Suttyn Ladner, Zephyr Stephens, and Scarlette Stephens.

A graveside service will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Thursday, October 15, 2026, at D'Iberville Memorial Park. A celebration of life will be planned for a later date and time.

The family would like to extend a special thank-you to Darrell Herron, Tressie Liebold, Saad Healthcare, and all the friends and family who helped care for Bobby during this difficult time.

Bobby will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him, and his memory will live on through the stories, laughter, and cherished moments shared with those closest to him.
