Robert Wayne "Bobby" Ogden, 62, of Edwards, MO, passed away on Tuesday, November 10, 2026, in Edwards. He was born on March 2, 1964, in Tipton, IN, the son of George Leroy Ogden Jr. and Eulah Mae (Brooks) Ogden, who survive of Tipton, IN.

On March 22, 2006, in Tipton, IN, he was united in marriage to Lenora (Ayers) Ogden, who survives of the home.

Bobby was a man of deep faith who loved his Lord and Savior. He found great comfort and joy in reading his Bible and sharing the Gospel with family and friends. His faith was an important part of his life, and he enjoyed encouraging others through God's Word.

Bobby dedicated 26 years of service to the City of Tipton, IN, where he worked as the city cemetery superintendent from 1982 until 2008. Throughout his years of service, he took pride in his work and the responsibilities entrusted to him. At the time of his passing, Bobby was employed in the maintenance department at Walmart in Warsaw, MO.

Bobby appreciated life's simple pleasures, especially time spent with those he loved. Some of his happiest moments were gathered around a warm fire with family and friends, playing his guitar, singing, and enjoying good company. He had a love for the outdoors and found peace and relaxation spending time on the water fishing. Bobby also had a special place in his heart for his beloved four-legged companions, BoBo, Odie, Daisy, Tennessee, and Sally Mae, who brought him much joy and companionship.

Above all, Bobby treasured his family. He dearly loved his wife, parents, siblings, and especially his children and grandchildren. He shared a particularly close bond with his brother Jeff, whom he affectionately considered his favorite brother and longtime "partner in crime." Their special relationship was filled with love, laughter, and cherished memories.

Bobby had a way of bringing light into the lives of those around him. Whether through a song, a story, a kind word, or simply spending time together, he left a lasting impression on the hearts of those fortunate enough to know him. His love for the Lord, devotion to family, and warm spirit will be remembered and deeply missed.

In addition to his wife and parents, Bobby is survived by three children, Dustin Ogden of Tipton, IN, Stephanie Ogden of Kirklin, IN, and Kitty Ogden of Tipton, IN; two sisters, Becky Schulenburg and her husband, Bruce, of Tipton, IN, and Angela Ogden of Tipton, IN; a brother, Jeff Ogden and his wife, Budge, of Tazewell, TN; nine grandchildren, Kenna, Jase, Zoey, Natalie, Maddie, Lucas, Lyla, Luna, and Zayne; numerous nieces, nephews, and cousins, including Clyde Ogden, Theresa Louthen, and Mike Ogden; and a special uncle, Mort Ogden.
