ROLLINS, WILLIAM ROBERT “BOB” 
October 31, 1942 — May 16, 2012

William Robert “Bob” Rollins, 69, a native of Lexington, Okla., and resident of 
Morgan City, passed away Wednesday, May 16, 2012, at Teche Regional Medical 
Center in Morgan City.

Bob is survived by three sons, Derrick Rollins of New Orleans, Michael Reid of 
Gulfport, Miss., and Kenneth Rollins and his wife Amanda of Cleveland, Tenn.; 
two daughters, Kemberley Scully and her husband Ronald of Morgan City and 
Vanessa Kimbril and her husband Chuck of Cleveland, Tenn.; one brother, John 
Rollins and his wife Brenda of Cleveland, Tenn.; two sisters, Mary Lou Stewart 
and her husband Ed of Lafayette and Norma Catledge and her husband Daymon of 
Norman, Okla.; and eight grandchildren, Shawn, Brad and Brennan Scully, all of 
Morgan City, Chaz and Cooper Kimbril, and Connor, Kathryn and Vince Rollins, 
all of Cleveland, Tenn.

He was preceded in death by his father, Jesse Rollins; his mother, Susie Garner 
Rollins; twin brothers, Jessie Rollins and Jimmie Rollins; and one sister, Ima 
Jean Kelley.

Bob was an avid OU, Saints and Dodgers fan. He immensely enjoyed spending time 
outdoors, either fishing or deer hunting with his family. Bob was a prankster, 
often playing tricks on his family. Bob enjoyed driving his grandsons to their 
ball games, so much so, that his family would joke that Bob’s truck needed to 
be painted yellow like a school bus. Dancing was also a favorite pastime of 
Bob’s; it was something he especially enjoyed at his Mardi Gras krewe’s events 
in Lafayette.

The family requests that visitation be observed Saturday, May 19, 2012, 6-9 
p.m., at Hargrave Funeral Home in Morgan City. 

Funeral services and burial will follow privately at a later date in Bob’s 
hometown of Lexington, Okla.
