    Aunt Bobbie was a very precious lady! She cared for my son, Adam, while I worked. I never worried about him because she was so loving and kind and took excellent care of him. We all loved her so much. I know she will be missed. I wish I coulld have heard that sweet, sweet laugh of hers one more time! All of the family are in my prayers!
