1942-2026
With profound reverence and heartfelt sorrow, Mr. J. Morrill Gray and the devoted staff of Paradise Funeral Home humbly announce the Homegoing of our beloved Ms. Bobbie Jean Boykins.
Though the shadow of death has passed over, we stand firm in the eternal promise that death does not have the final word. For the Word declares, “O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?” (1 Corinthians 15:55). Ms. Boykin has not been lost to us but has been received into the everlasting arms of our Lord, where there is no more pain, no more sorrow, and no more tears.
While our hearts grieve her physical departure, our spirits rejoice in the blessed assurance that she now rests in the presence of the Almighty. Love endures beyond the veil of mortality, and Ms. Boykin's spirit lives on—radiant and free—having exchanged his earthly tent for a heavenly dwelling.
