Bobbi York Obituary
Bobbi York
December 27, 2000-December 19, 2020
From the moment Bobbi Jo Elizabeth York came into this world on December 27, 2000, we knew she was something special. Her fighting spirit (and maybe a little bit of stubbornness)was evident after surviving her first open heart surgery at 6 days old and her second at 17. She passed away on December 19th, 2020.
Bobbi Jo was unique and definitely not an ordinary girly girl, instead preferring to hunt with her Papa Joe and Papa Bob, (this year was girls 2, boys 0), boating with her mom or floating with her dad. She loved the annual Lake Powell trip with Auntie Jamie and Uncle Brian. She enjoyed learning how to crochet and bake with Grandma Bev and cross country ski with Brandi. She enjoyed most everything Grandma Char bought her, excluding the princess pink dress and accessories.
She worked very hard to purchase a brand new car only to prefer driving the big old orange Ford truck.
Bobbi Jo worked for Safeway and had a strong work ethic getting to get promoted into management. She rarely missed a day. Except for the occasional heart surgery! She was currently a student at Montana Tech. She was going to finish this semester with her Associates degree and join the apprentice electricians program.
Bobbi Jo is survived by her parents, Jodelle LeProwse (Ken Roth) and Bob (Holly) York, grandparents Joe LeProwse, Char (Joe) Warren and Bev and Bob York, aunts and uncles, Jamie (Brian) Skinner, Jon (Allison) LeProwse, Brandi (Israel) Green, and sisters Braydi and Josh Knight (Kade), Bryli and Brodie Arnold (Sawyer). Along with numerous other LeProwse, Conniston, and York family members as well as many cousins (Bridger Nichols or aka partner in crime) and friends. She was preceded in death by her grandma Norilee (Meeks) LeProwse and one of her favorites Uncle Steve LeProwse.
Although, 19 years was not nearly long enough we are forever grateful for our time with Bobbi Jo and will remember her kindness, but stubbornness, laughter, and spirit. Bobbi Jo we love you and we will all miss you a lifetime.

I am so very sorry for your loss. I was Bobbi Jo´s advisor at Tech and had her in my Econ class this past semester. I enjoyed my time with her as she was a good and very hard working student. I also really appreciated her determination to make her own destiny - not one that others would expect. I will remember her for her strength of character and engaging personality.
