Rosella Mae Mobley

Rosella Mae Jackson Mobley, just over 100 years old, passed from this life on November 12, 2025. Rosella, born July 1, 1925, in Lone Wolf, OK, was the youngest of 12 children born to John William & Mary Ellan (Schafer) Archibald, Jackson. Rosella had 8 half siblings on her father’s side and 2 half siblings on her mother’s side. She and her brother, Leroy, were born after John William and Mary Ellan married. Rosella was born in a house north of Lone Wolf. While the family lived near Elk Creek, Rosella attended 1st grade in Hobart. The family then moved to a house south of Babbs Switch & Rosella attended 2nd through 4th grades at Babbs. The family returned to live north of Lone Wolf and she attended from 5th grade through graduation (May 1943) at Lone Wolf school. On a Sunday school class trip to Hunter Park in Hobart, Rosella saw a young man fishing and that’s when she met the love of her life, Eulis Samuel Mobley. He would borrow a car, or walk if he had to, to see her in Lone Wolf. After a while, Eulis began working for Rosella’s father on the farm. On July 7, 1945, Rosella and Eulis were married (her parents knew) at the Baptist Church parsonage by the preacher there who found 2 neighbors to be witnesses. After the brief ceremony, they drove to a movie in Hobart, told Eulis’s mother & sister that they got married, and then drove back to stay a night in a motel in Lone Wolf. They lived with Rosella’s parents for several years with their first born, Eulis Ray, who was born in 1946 at Granite. They eventually moved to Hobart and started out in a two-room house on Jefferson Street. A second child, Rita Jane, was born in 1954. Rosella worked some at the Ben Franklin store but was otherwise a stay-at-home mom. After Rita started high school, she worked at Self’s Printing for many years and then at Marty’s Merle Norman part time. Rosella lived in Hobart until 2018 when Eulis passed; they were married 73 years. She then lived with her daughter & family in Yukon for 5 years. She returned home to Hobart in 2023 living at Woodland Gardens Assisted Living Center back among family and friends. In October of 2025, she moved into Hobart Nursing & Rehab after a fall that caused some right hip fractures. That fall was her ticket to Glory land and Heaven gained another angel, November 12, 2025. Rosella was preceded in death by her parents and siblings as well as her husband (of 73 years), Eulis. She is survived by her son, Eulis Ray and wife Linda of Altus; her daughter, Rita Jane and husband Keith Morgan of Yukon; granddaughter, Angela Renee Mobley and husband Clayton Duba of Evanston, Illinois; grandson, Jared Keith Morgan and wife Julia of Arcadia; and granddaughter, Jacquelyn Keita Morgan of Yukon; great grandchildren: Ilyse Elender Rose Duba and Evelyn Caroline Duba of Evanston, IL; Zachary Austin Morgan & Brooklyn Reese Morgan of Arcadia and Falyn Justice McRay of Yukon. In addition to nieces and nephews, Rosella leaves behind a host of friends though at 100 years old she claimed to have outlived most. She was loved and will be deeply missed by all who knew her. Her family has the utmost appreciation & love for the staff & residents at Woodland Gardens who became her extended family and filled her last years with fun, activities & love. The family appreciates the staff at Hobart Nursing & Rehab and greatly appreciates Good Shepard Hospice for their kindness and exceptional care of Rosella. In lieu of flowers memorials in Rosella’s name may be made to Hobart Food Pantry.
