Born in Columbia, South Carolina on April 20, 1950, he was a son of the late James Ray Mooneyham and Lucile Tindall Mooneyham. Bobby was the loving husband of 43 years to Glenda Jackson Mooneyham.

Bobby was a member of the American Legion Post 130 and the National Guard Association. He was an avid USC Gamecocks fan who enjoyed watching football, baseball, and basketball. In his free time, Bobby enjoyed fishing, eating seafood, and walking on the beach. He was a devout family man and took great pride in his grandchildren. Bobby had a kind, gentle yet disciplined heart and to know him was to love him.
