Bobbie, it's been two yrs. now, still...I miss you so.  I'll love and miss you for the rest of my life, dear, sweet, Bobbie Jean.  You were a wonderful sister! I know you are with Jesus now and he is looking after you.  Give Mommy a kiss for me.

I love you, Bobbie!

Bobbie, it's been a whole yr. I miss you so very much.  You are locked in my heart forever and a lifetime!

I love you, Sweet Bobbie Jean

Bobbie, it is almost 3 mths. since you've been gone, and I still find myself at least once a day, stilled... completely stunned, like I've had the wind knocked out of me, when I remember you are no longer here. I have a few things that Robert gave me from your new apartment. I love them, because I remember them being in your old house, that you once touched those very things, and most importantly that you once lived on this earth and we were all close with you and you were a big part of our lives.   It is gonna take me a long time to stop hurting.  I really miss you. I miss that I didn't get to see you much in those years. But I always had you in my heart and thoughts, and prayers. I thank God, I wrote you letters and sent you many cards. I know you knew I really loved you. And I know you really loved me. Loved us all.  I know you really knew how much you were loved by all your family.  How could anyone not love you.  There was only one you.  I love you so much.  I always have. I think of you always.    You are a part of my heart, dear Bobbie, and will live there, Forever and a lifetime.

Here Mom, Precious wanted to say hello.  Well you called her Precious and I called her Princess, she answers to anything, really! 

Mom/Bobbie's cat is doing very well!  Not bad lookin for 16!!!  Also, Happy Spring Mom!  I know you couldn't wait to play in your new garden, so we made you some spring tulips. Well you know me, I didn't really do much but Stephen did!  We put our fountain on the balcony with a couple of flower pots, I will do lots more and I'm gonna make a sign that says Bobbie's Garden.  I hope it looks as good as yours (maybe if I hook Miracle Grow up to the hose like you did!)  Okay, love you Mom!

Bobbie, you are as beautiful as a Butterfly to me and Butterflies are Free.

You are free now, Bobbie.  I miss you.

My Mom would have gotten a kick out of this... if you look at all of her pictures, you'll NEVER EVER EVER see my mother's hairstyle without that "swoop" front and center.  She always said "It gives me that extra inch that I need."  We used to call it THE POMPADORE.  Her hair just seemed to grow up and over right into the swoop, the pompadore was like a permanent fixture since 1977.  Well, now I am trying a new hairstyle myself and I'm letting my hair grow out a little bit and guess what it's starting to do.  THE SWOOP!  I INHERITED THE POMPADORE!  My hair is just starting to naturally fall into it I can't believe it.  Bobbie <my Mom> would love it!!! Oh i know she was laughing hysterically in Heaven the very second I looked in the mirror and notice that my hair was starting to wave over and the swoop took over!

EVERYBODY LOVES BOBBIE!

Hey Mom, I don't like watching our shows without you but I know that you can see whatever you want whenever you want it.  Wasn't the L word the craziest this season?!  Our favorite girls the Peabody's came back, we loved them.  I haven't kept up with Desperate Housewives for you though, but I won't let you miss a single bit of Big Love when it comes back on.  Everybody probably thinks I'm the craziest person alive reading all of these, but I just really feel like you're reading every word I write...   

My Mom was the most beautiful person in the world, inside and out.  She was one of the few people in this world that truly accepted everyone for what they were whether it was negative or not.  She never judged anyone, not for a single second and did whatever she could to help whoever asked.  Maybe that was one of her downfalls, letting certain people into her life that caused nothing but chaos, but that was just the way she was, couldn't turn anybody away.  I had this friend Michael and it's a little weird, but now he is Michelle and when my Mom met him (her) again under this new identity, I didn't know how she would react.  Of course she knew exactly who it was, never asked a question about it and even let her give her a makeover and taught her how to French Braid.  That was the kind of person Bobbie was, it didn't matter who or what you were.  If the world had more of my mother it really wouldn't be such a fucked up place.  It's such a shame that you didn't have more confidence and self-esteem, but in our last few months together I got to know you as such a different person than I had alwasy seen before; you were such an amazing and intelligent woman, most importantly, you were charismatic and took life's adversity with a grain of salt.  I don't know anybody else who would imitate herself wearing huge orthopedic shoes for twelve years and just laugh about it.  We all miss your laughter, I don't think you ever went a single day without making something out of nothing or turning a bad situation into a humorous one.  Oh man, I love you so much.

Dear Bobbie, That last picture of you really shows how you were.Big smile.Laughing.I will so miss that about us. All the laughter.Your sense of humor.Your really were so special.Iam really gonna miss you! It is so terrible and tragic that your not here.But I know you had faith in God and that there is life after death. I can only imagine what job you are doing in Heaven. I know it's an interesting one. Knowing you!! My Dear loving sister,I really want you to know how much I loved you. I miss you terribly.One day we will see each other again in that land beyond the sky.I know you are taking in all the beautiful sights and enjoying all the beautiful music,never heard by mortal ear.I love you forever,with all my heart!

My favorite memorie of Bobbie was when she had the chicken pox.  At her request I would read Peter rabbit to her over and over again.  She would pretend to be shivering and I would have to hold her.  I would hand feed her while she pretended to be sick. She was in heaven for a day.  She often brought that up later in life and we would laugh about it.

 

Love you, Love you, Love you

Your Big sisiter,

     Joanie

 

I will never forget when I was a little girl I cracked my head open outside playing.I had to get stitches and wasn't feling good. My big sister Bobbie Jean had gone to a Birthday party and brought me all her candy from the party.She always wanted to make people feel better.That day I felt better to have all that candy! I also knew that she loved me.She was a great sister and friend.

Bobbie and Mommy together forever.

When little Bobbie Jean was born she was like a live baby doll to me as I was

only six years old.  When she was two or three I would pretend to be falling

off the couch and she would come running over to catch me and say " I save you,

I save you!  She would do this over and over and never got tired of coming to  my

rescue.  She was a very adorable baby and a beautiful girl and woman.  Her sons

love her so much and she loved them so much.  She always wore a locket around

her neck with her sons pictures in it and wanted to be buried with it.  My sincere

condolences to Robert and Stan.  I love you Bobbie forever and I can't wait to

see your smiling face again.    Love Forever,   Kathy. 

My little sister, Bobbie Jean, was the most adorable, little girl.  I remember walking home from school with my other sister, Kathy, and Bobbie Jean, only 2 or 3 yrs. old at the time, would always be waiting for us on the front lawn. She would always ask what we did at school that day and she always wanted to know if we brought her any "goodies". Goodies was what our beautiful, Mother called cookies, or any kind of desert. For the rest of her life, Bobbie Jean always referred to desert as "goodies".
