Dr. Robert “Bob” Leon Golly died Wednesday, July 31, 2019 from injuries sustained in a motorcycle accident near Juniper Point Campground, Gordonsville, TX.

Born May 30, 1937 in Zearing, IA to Vivian Bissell Golly and Earnest Golly. Survived by his wife of 62 years, Deloris “Jean” Golly, 4 children Greg & wife Kirsten, Randy & wife Sheri, Andrew & wife Michelle and Amy Golly, 7 grandchildren Josh, Amber, Megan, Madeline, Noah, Ethan & Emma, 2 great granddaughters Danika & Presley all living in the Dallas, TX area and his Mother Vivian, 2 sisters Lois & Jo living in Iowa and extended family and friends throughout the U. S.

Bob was a Dentist/Adventurer who never knew a stranger and lived life to the fullest. His passion for motorcycles brought him and his family much joy throughout his lifetime. The past 15+ years he and Jean have worked for the Corp of Engineers as gate hosts, and groundskeepers in Lake Texoma, Texas. As a member of The United Methodist Church in Kingston, OK. Bob touched many lives through community service and lively discussions pertaining to the Bible. He should finally have his answers he spent a lifetime seeking! Bob welcomed people with an open mind and open heart ready to share stories and help those in need. He will be greatly missed by all that knew and loved him.
