Obituary for Harold T. Boblitt Sr.
Harold Thomas Boblitt, Sr., passed away on Sunday, November 1st, 2020, after a four year battle with Multiple Myeloma.
He was born in Washington County, Kentucky on July 10, 1937, to Thomas J. and Marguierette Janes Boblitt, both deceased. He is survived by his wife, Carolyn Webb Boblitt. Their 62nd wedding anniversary would have been November 2nd.
He is also survived by son, Harold Thomas Boblitt, Jr., and his wife Kelly Boblitt; four grandchildren, Alex, Aaron, Emma and Lila; sister, Robbie Boblitt Coulter (J.C.), and their children Carla Brewer and Jim Coulter; special cousin, Georgiana Doty (Larry), and many dear friends.
Harold graduated as salutatorian of the class of 1955 of Springfield High School. He attended Spencerian Business School and farmed on the family farm in Washington County near Springfield; he moved to Louisville in 1967, and was an employee of General Electric for 25 years.
He was a man of few words, and always said you learn more by listening than you do by speaking. He was an active member of Buechel Park Baptist Church. His grandchildren were the highlight of his life; and after retirement, he loved traveling and cruising with friends.
