November 5, 1952 — June 3, 2020

Douglas A Hobbs, 67, of Kansas City, MO, went home to be with his Lord and Savior on June 3, 2020 after a short but valiant battle with cancer. Doug was at peace with his diagnosis due to his strong faith.  Visitation will be from 6:00-8:00p.m. Monday, June 8 at Longview Funeral Home and Cemetery, 12700 SE Raytown Rd, Kansas City, MO 64149. Memorial services will be at Abundant Life Church, 414 SW Persels, Lee’s Summit, MO 64081 on Tuesday, June 9 at 10:00a.m. Burial will follow at Longview Cemetery in Lee's Summit.

Doug was born to Loren and Emma Hobbs on November 5, 1952. He grew up in Odessa, MO, where he met his first wife, Patti. Doug and Patti were married August 18, 1973 and moved to the Raytown area, where they were blessed with three children – Kevin, Sara and Matthew. Doug remained happily married to Patti until her death in 2013.  Doug began working at Frito-Lay in 1975 and worked there until his retirement in 2014.  Doug met his second wife, Linda, through church, and they were married on September 24, 2016.  Doug and Linda spent their retirement together traveling and spending time with family and grandchildren, which is what they enjoyed most.  He was a deacon at Sterling Acres Baptist Church and wished to express his gratitude for the prayers from his church family and Christian friends.

He is survived by his wife Linda; children Kevin (Sarra) Hobbs, Sara (Josh) Harrell, Matthew (Dana) Hobbs; grandchildren Courtney, Addison & Mackenzie Hobbs, Austin and Ava Harrell, Trenton Hobbs; his mother Emma Hobbs; brother Mike (Jane) Hobbs.
