Not sure what to say?

Bobbie was a vivacious, funny, and loving girl who left us too soon, but God was calling her home to dance with Jack. I know she is happy now and although we miss her, she is pain and trouble free after fighting a good fight. We love you Bobbie.

John, Maura, and your Marines,

Those who have passed on,
live on in the good deeds they have done,
and in the hearts of those who cherish
their memories.

Thirty-four years of birth, graduation,
wedding, wake, funeral (and Go Navy)
memories with Bobbi and Jack,
her warmth and love was always there
for the Durnan family.


The Durnan family

John, Maura, and family,

My first meeting with Bobbi was when she and your Dad lived next to Gary's mom Ginny in Vienna. From the very first moment I met her, she was nothing but warm, friendly, and lots of fun. Over the years, the Trinkles were very fortunate to have her as a wonderful friend. Please know we miss her, and will hold her in our memories always.

Thinking of you in your loss,

Alison Trinkle

I first met Bobbi as a 5 year-old, and remember being just fascinated by how "ritzy" this little blonde-headed woman was. She was always so put together, and even as a child - I knew "Miss Hancock" knew how to have fun!

As an adult, I came to know and appreciate Bobbi for so much more than just her fascinating egg collection! I loved her dry sense of humor, her total devotion to family and friends, and her many creative talents.

I've laughed through some tears this week,...

John, it is never easy to say goodbye. Ronnie and I are deeply saddened by your loss of your loving, talented and giving mother, and we are truly sorry that we will not be able to be there for the services. I am glad, however, that I was able to come up and visit her this summer. We all had a lot of laughs remembering the good ole days in Columbia and our family escapades.

I pray that your memories will keep her near in your hearts because even though she is physically out of sight,...

Bobbi was a wonderful aunt. She was cute and perky and fun. Her talents were amazing, from cooking to sewing to painting to playing the piano.....she did it all so easily. My recipe box is full of her recipies and my heart is full of sadness now that she is gone. John and Maura, you are in my thoughts at this difficult time. Love, Karen

Bobbi was a wonderful friend to share time with. She was very fun and adventure loving. She was so inspiring with her many artistic talents. Her spirit will live on in the memories of those she came in contact with. Her love for her family was always first.
Sincerely,
Donna Critchlow

Bobbi was like a sister to me and I loved her dearly We spent many times talking and lauging the night away. Those were the best of times and I will always cherish my wonderful memories of her. John, Maura, Kyle and Jonathan, my thoughts are with you in this sad and difficult time.
Love,
Harriet

John & Maura, You have been in my thoughts and prayers for a while, now. Bobbi was an amazing and talented lady who touched many people. She will be missed. I pray that the Lord will show you and the boys peace in the difficult times ahead. Just remember all the good times and know she is back with Jack. Boy, does she have a lot to tell him. Love you, Judy
