The service for Bobby Gene Gordineer will be a celebration of life at the chapel of the Moose Lodge at 3:00 p.m. Saturday, January 15, 2022. Gene Long will officiate.
Bobby was born June 24, 1957, in Claremoore, Oklahoma, to Bob Gordineer and Jean Mason-Gordineer and passed away on Sunday, January 9, 2022. He suffered from dementia and had been released to his home on Saturday.
Bobby was a graduate from Enid High School with the class of 1976. After graduation he had a few different jobs, but his favorite were his five plus years as a greeter at Wal-Mart. He loved talking with people. He spent his summers at his grandparents' home and bait shop on Grand Lake. After the death of his grandfather he stayed and ran the business until his retirenment, whereby he moved back to Enid.
He collected coins, pocket-watches, antique banks and had an extensive record collection. He enjoyed fishing, hunting, listening to music and taking things apart to see how they worked and putting them back together.
He was preceded in death by his partner Arlene Hoeme, his mother Jean, maternal grandparents and one niece. He is survived by his sister, Cindy Hill of Enid; his brother, Steve Gordineer, of Tulsa, OK; and brother Tommy Gordineer and wife Carol of Texas; many nieces, nephews, which he was great as he loved children.
He was a unique soul and so interesting to talk to and will be missed by all. Arrangements are under the direction of Henninger-Hinson Funeral Home.
Police have identified a man who was found dead on Northern Oklahoma College’s Enid campus on Sunday morning, and authorities said his death does not appear suspicious.
Enid Police Department responded to report of a man lying on the ground on the northeast corner of University and Maine at 10:53 a.m. Sunday, according to Lt. Bryan Hart, and upon arriving found 64-year-old Bobby Gordineer, of Enid, dead. EPD detectives and the Medical Examiner’s Office were requested to the scene, and a preliminary investigation was conducted.
Gordineer was not experiencing homelessness, Hart said, and was not believed to be associated with NOC.
The cause of Gordineer’s death is unknown, Hart said, “but it doesn’t look suspicious” to police. Gordineer’s body was transported to Oklahoma City for an autopsy.
The area was blocked off for about five hours Sunday, and NOC released a safety alert on Sunday afternoon, asking faculty, staff, students and visitors to avoid the area.
The investigation is open pending the ME’s report, according to EPD.
