December 12, 2002 – October 2, 2025

It is with unimaginable heartbreak that we announce the passing of our beloved daughter, Emelee Joe Hobbs, age 22, of Tulsa, OK who left this world far too soon on October 2nd, 2025

From the moment she came into our lives, Emelee was a light — radiant, funny, and full of love. With her sparkling blue eyes, contagious laughter, and a heart that never stopped giving, she brought joy to everyone who knew her. She had the rare gift of making people feel seen, heard, and loved just as they were.

Emelee was known for her humor, her compassion, and her strength. She could brighten the darkest day with a single smile or a perfectly timed joke. She loved deeply and lived fully — whether it was singing along to her favorite songs, spending time with her friends and family.

She leaves behind her heartbroken parents, April Martinez, and Joseph Hobbs, her brother Joseph Hobbs and Sofia Hobbs. Connie Ketring Randy Ketring and Margarita Hobbs a large extended family, and countless friends who adored her. Emelee's presence was a blessing, and her absence leaves an empty place in our hearts.

Though our hearts are broken, we take comfort in knowing that Emelee's love, laughter, and spirit will forever live on in those who knew and loved her. She was our sunshine, our laughter, our everything — and her light will never fade.

"Those we love don't go away, they walk beside us every day — unseen, unheard, but always near."
