I just learned of Bobbie's passing from her website. Thank you for posting a tribute page. I am so very sorry for the loss of this wonderful creative woman! I was trying to contact Bobbie about a class she was scheduled to teach at Two Hands Paperie this weekend so I am stunned by the news. I have some of her beautiful altered book artwork on display at the shop and I would like to give it back to her family members. Please contact me at the shop. Thank you.

Silly string!
