  2. Bobbie showed me a patient and very talented lady. An extraordinary quilter who gently appreciated her surroundings and contributed to each acquaintance and group she frequented. She had a rare sense of humor that brightened her community. Bobbie will be missed by me and many more. Much sympathy and caring sent to Jim and your extended family from us
    .

  3. Bobbie was such a lovely soul. She always baked us treats, gave Julia Christmas gifts, Halloween treats and more. She gave Millie so much love, Millie knew that Jim gives the treats but Bobbie gave the love. Millie adored Bobbie. As we all did.
    We loved bring her neighbor for 8 years, she treated us like we were more than “just” a neighbor.
    Peace to you Bobbie. ❤
    Lisa, Julia and Millie

  4. Mark, Kim, Madison and Evan,

  6. Was sad to hear this from my sister-in-law, Jo Sopron. My condolences to the entire family. She fought long and hard. We were in the LaGrange Highlands Woman’s Club for years way back in the way, working hard to keep the Community Center going. So many fund raisers — think you were a model in one, Jim! A beautiful smile and quiet laugh. Bobbie is now at peace.
