S. Cobb work for many years at Gulf Garden Nursery and Broadwater Hotel in Biloxi. He worked for Mississippi Power for seventeen years before retiring. After retirement he founded Magee's Lawn Services where he diligently worked until eighty years of age.
His passion for fishing and sports brought joy to his life, and shared enthusiasm with those around him. His favorite past time was in his bass boat hooking a big fish. He was an avid fan of the New Orleans Saints and the Atlanta Braves. On any gameday, one could find him in his favorite spot watching a game and eating peanuts and pecans.
S. Cobb held many titles throughout his life, but his favorite role was being a father. He approached everything with enthusiasm and dedication, inspiring others to do the same. He touched the lives of many with his compassion, generosity , and unwavering support. He was a known giver of fifty-dollar bills.

He was a man of immense wisdom, cherishing every moment spent with his loved ones. He leaves behind a legacy of love, kindness, and integrity. He will be deeply missed by his family, friends and all who had the privilege of knowing him. His memory will forever remain in our hearts as we continue to carry forward his values and teachings. His unwavering spirit will forever be remembered, a pillar of strength and a beacon of love, his absence leaves a void in our hearts.
Our beloved family Patriarch was called to rest in God's loving arms on August 28, 2024, surrounded by his loving family in his final moments. Preceding him in peace was his loving daughter, Genice Robinson.
