Bobbie (Meme) was born on February 8, 1935 in Maysville, Oklahoma to Morelan Dee and Sylbia Bell Duvall Pell. She graduated from McKinney High School in 1953 and married her high school sweetheart, Jack L. Carroll, on January 2, 1954. While her husband Jack was serving in Korea, she worked for Mobil Oil as a key punch operator. They moved to Sherman after Jack came home from the Korean Conflict where they raised their two children.

Bobbie was a member of the Gardening Club, Craft Club, and Antique Club in Sherman, Texas. She was a very generous person with a servant’s heart who worked to feed the hungry and had a passion to help those in need. She loved music, rock and roll and going to loud concerts. She will be dearly missed.

Bobbie was preceded in death by her husband, Jack, her parents, sister Bonita Sylvia Pell Atkins and brother-in-law Hollis (Buddy) Harold Atkins. She is survived by her son, Gregory L. Carroll and partner Beverly Pugh of Sherman, daughter, Angie Carroll Frost and husband Robert of Sherman; three grandchildren: Kandice (Frost) Perez and husband Steven, David Frost, and Ashley Frost; two great grandchildren: Jack and John Perez; niece, Vickie Atkins Harris and husband Michael and several nieces and nephews.
