So sorry to hear of Bobbie's passing. For many, many years we had kept in touch through Christmas greetings. We also shared some special occassions when my children were growing, as well as at our lakehouse. I will always remember Bobbie as a warm and loving lady who, to my great delight, had mastered the art of conversation.

We were all sad to hear of your mother's passing, she was a feisty little woman who enjoyed a good long life. We know you will miss her terribly.
