Larry “Kat” W. Dobbins, of Davisburg, passed away peacefully on October 2, 2024, at the age of 86. He was the cherished husband of Wilma for 66 wonderful years.
A devoted family man, Larry was the beloved father of Cynthia (Bob) Gresham, Dennis (Wendy) Dobbins, Dave (Maria) Dobbins, and Dale (Gina) Dobbins. He was also a proud and loving grandfather to Kelly Krenkel, Dan Dobbins, Cassandra Vogel, and Nick Dobbins, dear brother of Gary Dobbins. He was preceded in death by his parents, Daniel and Marie Dobbins, his sister, Carolyn McGowen, and his granddaughter, Haley Gresham.
Larry, known affectionately as “Kat,” retired from Chrysler after a fulfilling career as a Design Supervisor.
In his retirement, he found joy in golfing, discussing politics, appreciating nature, and watching scary movies with his wife.
