Robert Garvin Bottoms Obituary
It is always difficult saying goodbye to someone we love and cherish. Family and friends must say goodbye to their beloved Robert Garvin Bottoms (Athens, Georgia), born in Birmingham, Alabama, who passed away at the age of 81, on January 27, 2026. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Robert Garvin Bottoms to show support.
In the quiet moments of reflection, amidst the gentle rustle of leaves and the whispered song of the stars, we shall carry Robert's memory with us, a guiding light illuminating the path ahead. May Robert's journey be filled with peace and serenity, and may he find rest in the embrace of eternity.
He is survived by: his children, David and Leslie (Dailey) of Athens; his grandchildren, Connor, Tate, Callie Bottoms and Noah Dailey; his sister Jane Holmes of Birmingham; and his close friend Lexie.
Memorials may be made to the Bottoms Endowment for Off Campus Study at DePauw University, or to Emmanuel Episcopal Church to continue support of the work he deeply valued.
