I was lucky to work with Bobbie in the Jackson Social Security office. She was a joy to work with, and always had a smile for everyone. She wrote like she talked -- FAST! -- and used a manual typewriter if she had to write more than a few words. My thoughts and prayers are with the family she loved so much.
