Mrs. Bobbye was one of the sweetest, most generous people I had the pleasure of knowing. I’ve known her since I was knee-high to a grasshopper, although, I’m not much taller than that now! Her and my Mom worked together for many, many years and in the process became good friends. The entire family became friends with my Dad and Mr. Frank both enjoying fishing very much. There were many fishing trips together. She was so very kind and when my Mom passed away in 2017, I considered Mrs. Bobbye a part of her and always knew if I needed a “Mom” figure to talk to, it would be her. I know she is enjoying her reunion with all her family that has passed but mostly her beloved Liz! I do believe that was the hardest thing she ever went through although she stayed strong and steadfast in the Lord throughout it all! I will miss her even though I didn’t physically see her much, I could always count on a like or comment on facebook! God bless all of you, her family as I know this is a great loss for you! Remember, we grieve for ourselves not for her because she is in the most beautiful place with beautiful people and her Sweet, Sweet Jesus! Love all of you and I will miss her terribly! ♥️➕♥️
My sweet Aunt Bobbye was one of the kindest persons I have ever had the privilege of knowing. She became a friend as well as an aunt. She had a fierce love and pride in the people she was closest to-her family. She was so very proud of each of you. She was very intelligent and enjoyed a good debate, most of the time winning in her presentation of her opinions. We would talk about any and everything. She told me, in great detail, about changing her name when she was very small. Her words painted a picture in my mind, that I will never forget. I will miss my friend forever. I know that she missed her family members that passed before. She longed for her Mamma & Poppa, her sisters, and her own sweet daughter Liz.
