law enforcement career in 1953 with the Merced Police Dept. After a 
brief time with the Merced Police Dept., he went to work with the 
California Highway Patrol, resigning as a Sergeant in 1966. Bobby 
then accepted a position with the State Labor Commissioner in 
Bakersfield. During his tenure with the state, Bobby studied law and 
was admitted to the California Bar in 1979. Bobby retired from the 
state in 1980 and practiced law until a recent illness. Bobby was a 
long time member of the Westside Church of Christ. His greatest joys 
were his family, cooking, working in his bountiful garden, and his 
Oklahoma Sooners. He is survived by his wife of 54 years, Emogene 
Puckett; son and daughter-in-law, Michael and Mary Puckett; daughters 
and sons-in-law, Patti and Stan Scharry, Susan and Terry Wood, and 
Nancy and Guy Beagley; brother and sister-in-law, Donald and Dolores 
Puckett; sister, Shirley Puckett.

He was a beloved PAPA to eleven grandchildren, Dustin, Carrick, 
Caitria, Trevor, Karah, Victoria, Camille, Bradley, Daniel, Gordon, 
and Clayton; three great grandchildren, Emilia, Gabriel, and Reagan; 
and leaves numerous nieces, nephews, other relatives, and many, many 
friends.
