Bobbi, as I knew her, was a warm and wonderful mother in law. She was such an interesting person and I liked hearing the stories of her childhood, of her involvement in politics, of golf and bowling, and of her husband (whom I never knew). I spent Jewish holidays with my then-husband Mark, his daughter, and Bobbi's granddaughter Julie, and with Mark's brother Jeff and his wife Ana. Bobbi taught me a lot about Jewish food and traditions. Get-togethers at her home were always so enjoyable; she was an extremely warm hostess and enjoyed getting the whole family together. And I will never forget how convinced she was that lobster from Captain Scott's could and would cure her brother's cancer, bringing him many pounds of lobster on a road trip we all went on to Long Island.
The Schneider family lost a unique and lovely person when Bobbi died.

I just heard about the passing of your mother. Hard to believe we were neighbors for 26 years. I had been in my home for about a week the first time she accidentally set off the alarm. Thats how we met and became friends. I couldn't even count the number of times that she set that alarm off. So funny.
Such a lovely lady and so full of life.
Thanks for the memories Annetta.

Dear Mark & Jeff:
I always remember your mother as glamorous and gracious. She was always so warm to me when I was at your house or saw her at school or in town. She seemed so proud of both of her boys. I hope time and the love of your families and friends will help you through this sadness.
