Bobby John Escue

Bobby John Escue, the "Million Dollar Baby" and cherished superhero, age 3, of Russellville, Kentucky passed away on Friday, June 18, 2021, at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, Tennessee. He was born Saturday, April 28, 2018 in Nashville, Tennessee, the son of Billy Escue and Christina Stratton Escue, who survive. Bobby John was an amazing little sweetheart, he is known as the "million dollar baby" and loved to color on the walls like a little Mr. Picasso. Bobby loved to run around with receipts, paint sample cards, American Flags, and all of his Mickeys. He was such a character and would always dance to the "Hot Dog Song" from Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and loved to sing "Wheels on the Bus." His smile would take your breath away and he loved to give kisses and cuddle. Although sweet, he was still all boy and loved to get dirty, throw rocks, play on his swing set, blow bubbles, and quack like a duck. His laugh was the most precious thing you would ever hear and was so full of life. He always had to be on top of the kitchen island to help cook. He loved Mickey Mouse and always had to watch it on the 70-inch TV. He was king of the house and has a special tree in the backyard where he loved to eat his snacks and drink his juice. He had just gotten his "big boy bed," a twin-sized Batmobile bed. He loved it so much that he was regularly caught running off to nap in it. He loved to play with his brothers and run around with Mommy and Daddy. Every time he got in the car he had to stop at Grammie and Papa's house. Everywhere we went he had to take his 4 Mickeys and at least two flags. After every purchase, he had to have the receipts and would carry them around for days. This sweet, kind, loving, amazing, wonderful little boy is so loved by everyone who has ever met him. He always loved to jump into Mommy's and Daddy's bed and snuggle. He is a true miracle, weighing only 1 lb., 5 oz. at birth. He fought hard to be here, spending three months in the NICU at Vanderbilt, all while being constantly loved on by the whole family. He was always happy and running wild and will always be loved and cherished by many. Also surviving are brothers, Brandon Evans of Russellville, KY and Cayden Escue of Russellville, KY; grandparents, John and Jennifer Stratton of Russellville, KY, Margo Escue of Russellville, KY, Bobby Escue of Russellville, KY; great great grandparents, W.L. and June Stratton of Lewisburg, KY; several aunts and uncles.
