Bobby Garney, Pharm. D. of Cabot, left to be with his Lord on Feb. 21, 2019. Bob served his fellow man as a pharmacist for over 50 years. At one time, he owned and operated Foreman City Drug in Foreman. He came to Little Rock from John Peter Smith Hospital of Fort Worth, Texas, and was engaged in hospital pharmacy at the Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Little Rock. This is where he met his wife of 21 years, Margaret.  He also had many acquaintances and friends at Pinnacle Pointe Hospital in Little Rock.  Bob was a history buff, but his love was pharmacy and he regularly met with a group of retired pharmacists for breakfast. He participated in Bible Study Fellowship with an evening men’s group in Little Rock and was a member of Central Baptist Church in North Little Rock, Ark. 

Bob was a 1959 graduate of Dierks High School in Dierks, Ark., attended Henderson State Teachers College and graduated from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville in 1964. Bob earned his Bachelor of Science in Pharmacy in 1967. In 1999, Bob went on to receive a Doctor Pharmacy degree.
