Dear Joe,
I want you to know how much our family loved Bobbie, she was a great girl, we had many great times together. She will be sadly missed but I will alway remember her great kindness to all who had the pleasure of knowing her. Today was very hard saying good-bye to her. I hope you find comfort in knowing that you made her very happy and always told me how great you and your sons were to her.

Bobbie was my best friend at my new school in 5th grade, and continued to be through Kensington H.S: sorority; piano lessons; our Sunday rides in either your pink caddy with the "fins", or my brothers white convertible mustang; (my maid of honor; your maid of honor); the Cottage in Canada, (So much fun!) Time and miles slipped through our hands, but my memories will always be fresh. 'SANEJAGABOB" Friends Forever... My sincere sympathy. Sandy (Burger) Mast. Hudson, WI

Joe, I am so grateful Bobbie came into my life back in the VA days. Sharing the house, living with the animals, meeting you, going to the cottage in Canada, hanging with Ginny, the "day-old " bread runs for charity were a blast. She was a special gal who had kindness in her heart for all who came into her life. You treated her like a princess and provided her with the best lifestyle she could want. I wish we saw her more. We'll miss her.
