So sorry for your loss! Those words ring so ordinary sometimes. But we do mean them.
Being aquatinted with great loss my heart breaks for you and your family. A great light has gone out. Ms Bobbie was one of those extraordinary people you meet only a few times in life. We know Ms Bobbie is in Jesuss arms with her head on his chest. He finally gets to hold her in His arms. The very reason for Him creating her. That still doesnt relieve your profound sense of grief. Which never really goes away. It doesnt really lessen you just dont remember it all the time. I pray the strength of your lovely family carries you through this time of sadness.
