I have lost a dear friend and you have lost a great mother and grandmother. She loved each of you dearly. I enjoyed my recent visits with Bobbie Sue as we talked and laughed about days gone by. I am blessed that the Lord allowed our paths to cross.

My husband, Sonny Parrish was a nephew to Bobby. It was my great fortune to know Bobbie Sue and Buckshot for many years. Bobbie Sue was a grand woman. She always was there for us....helping when I was a new mother and knew nothing about caring for a baby! We didn't keep in touch anymore except at Christmas. I will miss those Christmas cards and notes. May you and your sisters and brothers enjoy Heaven and our Savior Jesus! Lavonne Parrish, Amarillo, TX.

Bobbie Sue, you were my mother-in-law for 13 years, my friend for 27 more. You have been an inspiration, a mentor, an example of selflessness and pure sacrificial love. I will miss you but I smile when I think of the memories and how happy those waiting for you in heaven must be today.
