6.18.10

On the evening of January 9, 1960, Brother Branham asked for all who believed to stand to their feet if they wanted the Lord to heal them. A young man named Bobby Watson answered the called. He was unable to get a prayer card, but the migraine headaches he had suffered with for so many years left him at that moment and never returned.

Brother Bobby's life changed that evening in Tifton, Georgia. He began making the long drive from his home in southern Georgia to Jeffersonville every time he heard Brother Branham would be at the Tabernacle. There was something deep inside that longed to hear more of his Message.

As the months turned to years and the years turned to decades, that longing only grew stronger. He listened to tape after tape. The more he heard, the more he wanted to hear. There was just something about that Voice that spoke to his heart. It was the most important thing in the world to Brother Bobby, and he wanted everyone to hear it.

In 1984, Brother Joseph asked Brother Bobby to join the team at the newly formed, Voice Of God Recordings. Over the years, he played a leading role in duplicating almost 9 million cassette tapes. There is no one in the world who personally touched more of Brother Branham's tapes than him.

His son, Brother Joel, said the following about his father: People measure their life's success by doctorate degrees, elected offices, being the head of a fellowship, or some other prized award, but not Dad. His greatest accomplishment was his service to the Bride of Christ through working at Voice Of God Recordings. And he was proud of it.

Brother Bobby received his reward yesterday, when he went Home to be with the Lord Jesus, Whom he had served for so many years.

Thank you Brother Bobby. You have been a blessing to us all.
