Not sure what to say?

I will surely miss "Aunt Mary from Mt Airy"! She was a great soul! She made me laugh every time I saw her. I fondly remember her 98th birthday party, her 100th birthday party, and her visiting me at my home this past summer-she came to see us from her assisted living apartment and I felt so honored to have her at my house! God Bless Aunt Mary!

My deepest condolences to you in the loss of your mother, grandmother and greatgrandmother. I remember her fondly. She was my third grade teacher. She was a tough and wonderful teacher, who showed how much she cared about us by making us stick to the rules and suffer the consequences if we didn't. No exceptions! What greater lesson can a teacher give an eight year old! She tempered her logic with love and caring, and instilling in us a great love of learning. She worked hard, and she...

I am really sorry to hear of this loss, Mrs. Bobbin was my teacher in both the 3rd and 6th grades at St. Cecilia's. My fondest memory is a Yo-Yo which I had won in a contest at Furlows 5 & 10, was taken from me for bringing "toys" to class. A bitter lesson because that was a real prize to me. God Bless Mrs. Bobbin.

Mrs. Bobbin taught our class both the 3rd and 6th grades. She was a pioneer as lay teachers were nonexistent in the Catholic schools at that time. She was warm, charming, and her students all loved her quick wit and funny stories about her daughters. She touch many lives and i am sure the trumpets were playing as she walked through the gates of heaven.

to Anne Washofsky: Our class is planning a 50th year reunion in March and your brother John is a member of our class. Please ask him...

Hi:
Mrs. Bobbin was my teacher for 3rd grade in 1953-54 and 6th grade in 1956-57. I came back to visit her in 1964 while on leave in the Air Force. She put me in front of her class at that time and told the class to look at me, for if I could make it, anyone could!!!

I had Mrs Bobbin as a teacher in 1956. She was the equivalent of having our own "Mrs Chips". She was a major influence on many children.
Her legacy lives on through the students she taught.

Dear Bobbin Family: Thinking of you, and wishing you hope in the midst of sorrow and comfort in the midst of pain. I remember your mother as one of the golden rods at St. Cecelia's and she was wonderful. If memory serves me correctly, I think that she taught 4 of our family members. With heartfelt sympathy, Anne (Washofsky)Oestreich, formerly of Fox Chase, now St. Louis, MO.

Sincere Condolences to the Bobbin Family:
I had Mrs. Bobbin in the 6th Grade Class at St. Cecilia's School and remember her as being a tough teacher but genuine in caring for each and every student in the class. I know that the family is going through a lot at this time but want you to know that there are many people who care for you all and are praying right along with you and I'm one of them. God Bless our Mrs. Bobbin.

One of the best at St.Cecilia's. 6th grade was a learning experience that we all took to heart because of her. Mrs. Bobbins will always be remembered for her style of teaching.
Rest in Peace Mrs.B
