Not sure what to say?

I just learned of Bobbi's passing. We lived on the same floor at 4000 Tunlaw. Bobbi was always so kind to my son as he grew up. I admired her activism in DC on behalf of children and intrigued by her interest in writing plays which I attended. After many years of absence from the building, Bobbi returned for a short stay last winter. I was delighted to visit with her and catch up but sad to see that she was suffering from illness. When I mentioned to my son that we had visited, he was so...

Bobbi's love for people was all-embracing. My sympathy is with her family and friends.

I started the Daily International Meeting for Worship for Peace on Feb 24 2022, when russia invaded Ukraine. Bobbi began attending regularly shortly after it started. Her mantra, "Peace and Love" is remembered by the particpants; we heard it ring clear and sincere whenever she was present. I am grateful for the notes in the obituary, filling in details we did not know about her. What we knew for certain was her deep love of the children around her and her dedication to improving life for...

I live in Bristol UK, and am a member of an international online Quaker meeting for worship for peace in Ukraine. I'm a regular attendee, as was Bobbi, and while the meetings are mostly silent we occasionally met up in a breakout group about climate change. Bobbi's contributions were always heartfelt and moving.

We only knew her via Moscow house Quakers on zoom since the beginning of the Ukraine War but was impressed with her devotion to peace and justice. THANK YOU

I send my love to Bobbi's family and cerebrate her life. I have known Bobbi for about three years, through the Quaker International meeting for worship for peace for Ukraine. When ever Bobbi spoke, it came from the heart, with love and peace for all. Bless you Bobbi.

Bless her memory I knew her online

Peace and Love. This is the message Bobbi brought, through her words and presence. She was a Light in this world.
