Barbara "Bobbie" Lowana Carson

The love of our mother is there, like the love of God, no matter what. It never runs out. Moms who love their children well understand that children are a gift from God, regardless of their behavior in the moment. They know how to provide for their children in ways no one else can. That is our Mother, Bobbie Carson, and will be in our hearts Forever.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her grandson, Cody Fender, sisters - Ruth Sams, Mildred Carson, and Sara Carson.

Surviving are her daughter, Jennifer Fender and husband Don of Weaverville; Terry “Chief” Hensley and wife Sherry of Statesville, Charles “Charlie” Hensley and wife Ronda of Alexander, Keith “Chub” Hensley and wife Melina of Barnardsville, and Gary “Cloud” Hensley and wife Cathy also of Barnardsville; sister, Sandy Hensley of Barnardsville; 13 grandkids and 21 great grandchildren.
