We want you to know our thoughts & prayers are with you. It is always hard when one of our loved ones leave us but always a blessing when we know she is now with the Lord. We remember Barbara with fond memories.

You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Bobbi was a strong lady who appreciated a young girl having some change in her pocket! She would be quick to offer a hand up but you needed to your part! I have great memories hanging around during my high school years:) Just liked going over there to talk. Funny how it always turned into painting something, gardening or setting up a babysitting gig with one of the grandkids. I know she was blessed with how the family has grown! May peace be with you all~~~~Corene

To all of Barb's family: we are sorry for your loss after her illness. She was a great cousin and friend to have with inspiration. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the entire family and may God be with you at this time. Love, Marcia (Luckstead), Dave and Cameron Prosser

Dear Keith and Family, We were saddened to hear of Bobbi's long illness and passing. While we haven't been in touch for many, many years, Corene, Terry and I were so very fond of her and so grateful for her friendship and many kindnesses, when we so sorely needed them. Our memories of her are very "Special" to our hearts and will always remain there. May you now gather up all of your "Special Memories" as well, and cling to them, knowing and believing that she no longer suffers, and that she truly resides in the dwelling place God has prepared for her. Love always, Janice McGinn

My heart and prayers go out to your family and you Kieth

So sorry to hear of Bobbi's passing. It's been a few years since we had a catch-up conversation. She was always one of my favorite cousins, ....lots of memories from spending summer times in Alburnett.

Barbara, The love you gave me will always be in my heart. I love you soo much. My heart aches, but know that you are in a better place. But it still does not take the ache away that I feel. Blessings to you and your family. All my love Connie "Elson" Sterling

Although I haven't seen her for a few years, and then I'm not sure she was 100% aware how I and my children related to her, I will miss her presence here and always keep memories of her hospitality, and her caring and sharing personality close to my heart. Of what I know about her illness, she is in a much more peaceful and comfortable place. Wishing all her closest family and friends peace and comfort as well.
