How terribly sad it is when you lose a friend – most especially a good friend of 45 years. I will be thinking of all the wonderful memories our families have had together over the years. The most wonderful gift of all was being with Bobbi and taking care of her needs the last 11 days of her life. It is a memory I will treasure for the rest of my life.
Dear Bill, Brad, Amy, and family, Dennis called me last night and we have contacted Irwin and Shirley. We were extremely shocked by her passing. We had no idea of her illness. She was a lovely lady! Our deepest condolences to all of you! Our thoughts and prayers will be with you!!
Bobbie and I both worked for FCPS. I always looked forward to seeing her at meetings. I am so sorry to learn of her deth.
Dear Bill, Amy, Brad, and family, So sad to hear of Bobbi’s passing. She was a special lady and faithful friend. May you all receive comfort in knowing she loved her family and served her community in all she did. You all will have our prayers in these days ahead as you gather together the many memories you enjoyed. We shared a birthday month and my own wedding ceremony 49 years ago. An upstanding girl and a delight to be around. She will be sorely missed but positively remembered.

I was so sorry to hear about Bobbi’s death. I would only see her at election sites or run into her occasionally. She always kept me informed about Amy and how she is doing. I will miss seeing her. Gloria Rossbach

Bill, Brad, Amy and family, I was shocked and deeply saddened to hear the unexpected news from Nancy about Bobbi’s passing. Although it had been many, many years since we’d last seen each other, Bobbi always made sure we never lost touch. I appreciated that very much. You have my sincerest sympathy.

Dear Bill, Brad and Amy, Bobbi was a special friend to me and I’ll miss her so much. She was a wonderful woman who cared for others and helped so many. She loved teaching children to read and was an avid reader herself. I know that she especially loved being a mother and grandmother. I grieve with you in these very sad times but I have many good memories as I know you do.
Bobbi influenced so many with her kindness, wisdom, generosity and sweetness of spirit. She was without a doubt one of the “good ones.” Bill, our thoughts are with you and your family.

All my life I guess I thought I knew my sister, but speaking with all of her valued and loved friends after her death showed me more of her than I ever knew. She lived her life her way, with strength and energy until the very last. God love her, we will miss her.
